Famous quotes containing the word ernest:

    O, there’s a wind a-blowing, a-blowing from the west,
    And that of all the winds is the one I like the best,
    For it blows at our backs, and it shakes our pennon free,
    And it soon will blow us home to the old countrie.
    —William Ernest Henley (1849–1903)
