Anthony Eden/prime Minister 1955-57

Famous quotes containing the words eden, prime and/or minister:

    Responsibility is what awaits outside the Eden of Creativity.
    Nadine Gordimer (b. 1923)

    And this must be the prime of life . . . I blink,
    As if at pain; for it is pain, to think
    This pantomime
    Of compensating act and counter-act,
    Defeat and counterfeit, makes up, in fact,
    My ablest time.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    [T]he dignity of parliament it seems can brook no opposition to it’s power. Strange that a set of men who have made sale of their virtue to the minister should yet talk of retaining dignity!
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
