Famous quotes containing the words earls, ninth and/or creation:

    If the Christ were content with humble toilers for disciples, that wasn’t good enough for our Bert. He wanted dukes’ half sisters and belted earls wiping his feet with their hair; grand apotheosis of the snob, to humiliate the objects of his own awe by making them venerate him.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    The ninth day of Christmas,
    My true love sent to me
    Nine drummers drumming,
    —Unknown. The Twelve Days of Christmas (l. 53–55)

    Party action should follow, not precede the creation of a dominant popular sentiment.
    J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)
