Famous quotes containing the words honours, club and/or records:
“Come hither, all ye empty things,
Ye bubbles rais’d by breath of Kings;
Who float upon the tide of state,
Come hither, and behold your fate.
Let pride be taught by this rebuke,
How very mean a thing’s a Duke;
From all his ill-got honours flung,
Turn’d to that dirt from whence he sprung.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
“Women ... are completely alone, though they were born and bred upon this soil, as if they belonged to another class in creation.”

“Better the rudest work that tells a story or records a fact, than the richest without meaning.”
