Famous quotes containing the words lodge and/or reservations:
“As yields no mercy to desert,
Nor grace to those that crave it.
Sweet sun, when thou lookest on,
Pray her regard my moan;
Sweet birds, when you sing to her,
To yield some pity, woo her;”
—Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)
“Most people, no doubt, when they espouse human rights, make their own mental reservations about the proper application of the word “human.””
