Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or students:

    Richard Burton is now my epitaph, my cross, my title, my image. I have achieved a kind of diabolical fame. It has nothing to do with my talents as an actor. That counts for little now. I am the diabolically famous Richard Burton.
    Richard Burton (1925–1984)

    A complacent old Don of Divinity
    Used to boast of his daughter’s virginity:
    “They must have been dawdlin’,
    The students of Magdalen—
    It couldn’t have happened at Trinity.”
