Famous quotes containing the words humble and/or presented:

“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)

“A judge is not supposed to know anything about the facts of life until they have been presented in evidence and explained to him at least three times.”
