Famous quotes containing the words livingstone and/or falls:

    Anybody who enjoys being in the House of Commons probably needs psychiatric care.
    —Ken Livingstone (b. 1945)

    O how wretched
    Is that poor man that hangs on princes’ favours!
    There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to,
    That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,
    More pangs and fears than wars or women have,
    And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer,
    Never to hope again.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
