Bishop Tells

Famous quotes containing the words bishop and/or tells:

“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)

“He tells me how sweet
The babies look in their hospital
Icebox,”
—Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
