Famous quotes containing the words bishop and/or show:
“Whether they knew or not,
Goldsmith and Burke, Swift and the Bishop of Cloyne
All hated Whiggery; but what is Whiggery?
A levelling, rancorous, rational sort of mind
That never looked out of the eye of a saint
Or out of drunkard’s eye.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“There are some faults which, when dexterously managed, make a brighter show than virtue itself.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
