6th Baron Wenlock

Famous quotes containing the words baron and/or wenlock:

    Every thing secret degenerates, even the administration of justice; nothing is safe that does not show how it can bear discussion and publicity.
    John Emerich Edward Dalberg, 1st Baron Acton (1834–1902)

    On Wenlock Edge the wood’s in trouble;
    His forest fleece the Wrekin heaves;
    The gale, it plies the saplings double,
    And thick on Severn snow the leaves.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
