Famous quotes containing the words cam and/or block:
“Sometimes she sank, sometimes she swam,
Until she cam to the miller’s dam.”
—Unknown. Binnorie; or, The Two Sisters (l. 21–22)
“Dug from the tomb of taste-refining time,
Each form is exquisite, each block sublime.
Or good, or bad,—disfigur’d, or deprav’d,—
All art, is at its resurrection sav’d;
All crown’d with glory in the critic’s heav’n,
Each merit magnified, each fault forgiven.”
—Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)
