Lloyd Browning

Famous quotes containing the words lloyd and/or browning:

    The Landlord is a gentleman ... who does not earn his wealth. He has a host of agents and clerks that receive for him. He does not even take the trouble to spend his wealth. He has a host of people around him to do the actual spending. He never sees it until he comes to enjoy it. His sole function, his chief pride, is the stately consumption of wealth produced by others.
    —David Lloyd George (1863–1945)

    So, Willy, let you and me be wipers
    Of scores out with all men—especially pipers;
    And, whether they pipe us free, from rats or from mice,
    If we’ve promised them aught, let us keep our promise.
    —Robert Browning (1812–1889)
