Fellows

Famous quotes containing the word fellows:

    ...I remembered the rose bush that had reached a thorny branch out through the ragged fence, and caught my dress, detaining me when I would have passed on. And again the symbolism of it all came over me. These memories and visions of the poor—they were the clutch of the thorns. Social workers have all felt it. It holds them to their work, because the thorns curve backward, and one cannot pull away.
    —Albion Fellows Bacon (1865–1933)

    What should such fellows as I do crawling between earth and
    heaven?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Some dying men are the most tyrannical; and certainly, since they will shortly trouble us so little for evermore, the poor fellows ought to be indulged.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
