Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or bishop:

    For my own part, I would rather be in company with a dead man than with an absent one; for if the dead man gives me no pleasure, at least he shows me no contempt; whereas the absent one, silently indeed, but very plainly, tells me that he does not think me worth his attention.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    The art of losing isn’t hard to master;
    so many things seem filled with the intent
    to be lost that their loss is no disaster.
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
