Double Neck

Famous quotes containing the words double and/or neck:

“The Cossack eats Poland,
Like stolen fruit;
Her last noble is ruined,
Her last poet mute:
Straight, into double band
The victors divide;
Half for freedom strike and stand;—
The astonished Muse finds thousands at her side.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“After all, it is not where one washes one’s neck that counts but where one moistens one’s throat.”
