Famous quotes containing the words taylor coleridge, john, taylor and/or coleridge:

    Rights! There are no rights whatever without corresponding duties. Look at the history of the growth of our constitution, and you will see that our ancestors never upon any occasion stated, as a ground for claiming any of their privileges, an abstract right inherent in themselves; you will nowhere in our parliamentary records find the miserable sophism of the Rights of Man.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    How soon I may ride the whole world about;
    And at the third question thou must not shrink,
    But tell me here truly what I do think.”
    —Unknown. King John and the Abbot of Canterbury (l. 30–32)

    So, while their bodies moulder here
    Their souls with God himself shall dwell,—
    But always recollect, my dear,
    That wicked people go to hell.
    —Ann Taylor (1782–1866)

    Wit’s forge and fire-blast, meaning’s press and screw.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
