1st Baron Silkin

Famous quotes containing the words baron and/or silkin:

    As ye of clay were cast by kind,
    So shall ye waste to dust.
    Thomas Vaux, 2d Baron Vaux Of Harrowden (1510–1566)

    He turned over on his side with his one year
    Red as a wound
    He turned over as if he could be sorry for this
    And out of his eyes two great tears rolled, like stones, and he died.
    —Jon Silkin (b. 1930)
