Famous quotes containing the words bill and/or clay:

    “It’s true I’ve got no shirts to wear;
    It’s true my butcher’s bill is due;
    It’s true my prospects all look blue—
    But don’t let that unsettle you:”
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    “And here the precious dust is layd;
    Whose purely temper’d Clay was made
    So fine, that it the guest betray’d.

    Else the soule grew so fast within,
    It broke the outward shell of sinne,
    And so was hatch’d a Cherubin.”
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
