Famous quotes containing the words interchange and/or limerick:
“What men have called friendship is only a social arrangement, a mutual adjustment of interests, an interchange of services given and received; it is, in sum, simply a business from which those involved propose to derive a steady profit for their own self-love.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (16131680)
“Galway is a blackguard place,
To Cork I give my curse,
Tralee is bad enough,
But Limerick is worse.
Which is worst I cannot tell,
Theyre everyone so filthy,
But of the towns which I have seen
Worst luck to Clonakilty.”
—Anonymous. Clonakilty, from Geoffrey Grigsons Faber Book of Epigrams and Epitaphs, Faber & Faber (1977)
