Close Bond

Famous quotes containing the words close and/or bond:

    And now, dear little children, who may this story read,
    To idle, silly, flattering words, I pray you ne’er give heed;
    Unto an evil counselor close heart, and ear, and eye,
    And take a lesson from this tale of the Spider and the Fly.
    Mary Howitt (1799–1888)

    They lived under a just and moderate government, and they admitted that one bond of their fidelity was that their rulers were the better men.
