Famous quotes containing the word choose:

“And we, barely recalled from sleep there, sense
Arrivals lowing in a doleful distance
Horny dilemmas at the gate once more.
Come and choose wrong, they cry, come and choose wrong....”

“Jack and Joan they think no ill,
But loving live, and merry still;
Do their week-days’ work, and pray
Devoutly on the holy day;
Skip and trip it on the green,
And help to choose the Summer Queen;”
—Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
