Famous quotes containing the words ring, dealing and/or members:

    “Roll unmanly over this turning tuft,
    O ring of seas, nor sorrow as I shift
    From all my mortal lovers with a starboard smile....”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “... dealing with being a lesbian—and part of that is by being politically activist—has caused me to have a less carefree adolescence. But I don’t think that’s a bad thing. It has its rewards.”
    —Karina Luboff (b. 1974)

    “A multitude of little superfluous precautions engender here a population of deputies and sub-officials, each of whom acquits himself with an air of importance and a rigorous precision, which seemed to say, though everything is done with much silence, “Make way, I am one of the members of the grand machine of state.””
    —Marquis De Custine (1790–1857)
