Estate Duty

Famous quotes containing the words estate and/or duty:

    “Sweet are the thoughts that savour of content,
    The quiet mind is richer than a crown;
    Sweet are the nights in careless slumber spent,
    The poor estate scorns Fortune’s angry frown.
    Such sweet content, such minds, such sleep, such bliss,
    Beggars enjoy, when princes oft do miss.”
    —Robert Greene (1558?–1592)

    “Never anything can be amiss
    When simpleness and duty tender it.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
