Burnt Flat

Famous quotes containing the words burnt and/or flat:

    People who are always praising the past
    And especially the times of faith as best
    Ought to go and live in the Middle Ages
    And be burnt at the stake as witches and sages.
    Stevie Smith (1902–1971)

    But pardon, gentles all,
    The flat unraised spirits that hath dared
    On this unworthy scaffold to bring forth
    So great an object.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
