Famous quotes containing the words bishop and/or james:
“Whether they knew or not,
Goldsmith and Burke, Swift and the Bishop of Cloyne
All hated Whiggery; but what is Whiggery?
A levelling, rancorous, rational sort of mind
That never looked out of the eye of a saint
Or out of drunkard’s eye.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“I suppose one has a greater sense of intellectual degradation after an interview with a doctor than from any human experience.”
