Famous quotes containing the words sister and/or statue:

    For she has made me the laily worm
    That lies at the fit o’ the tree,
    An’ my sister Masery she’s made
    The machrel of the sea.
    —Unknown. The Laily Worm and the Machrel of the Sea (l. 5–8)

    The man who is ostentatious of his modesty is twin to the statue that wears a fig-leaf.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
