Famous quotes containing the words dorothea and/or church:

    The breaking waves dashed high
    On a stern and rock-bound coast,
    —Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)

    In church your grandsire cut his throat;
    To do the job too long he tarried:
    He should have had my hearty vote
    To cut his throat before he married.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
