Famous quotes containing the words john and/or baron:

    “No such sermons have come to us here out of England, in late years, as those of this preacher,—sermons to kings, and sermons to peasants, and sermons to all intermediate classes. It is in vain that John Bull, or any of his cousins, turns a deaf ear, and pretends not to hear them: nature will not soon be weary of repeating them. There are words less obviously true, more for the ages to hear, perhaps, but none so impossible for this age not to hear.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Sleep, and forget all things but one,
    Heard in each wave of sea,—
    How lonely all the years will run
    Until I rest by thee.”
    —John Byrne Leicester Warren, 3rd Baron De Tabley (1835–1895)
