Famous quotes containing the words earls, fourth 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 fourth day of Christmas,
    My true love sent to me
    Four colly birds,
    —Unknown. The Twelve Days of Christmas (l. 13–15)

    Language ought to be the joint creation of poets and manual workers.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)
