Large Bid

Famous quotes containing the words large and/or bid:

“The best hopes of any community rest upon that class of its gifted young men who are not encumbered with large possessions....

—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

“Often he bid me come and have a look
Up the brass barrel, velvet black inside,
At a star quaking in the other end.”
