Famous quotes containing the words mary and/or dickens:

    Mary had a little lamb,
    Its fleece was white as snow,
    And every where that Mary went
    The lamb was sure to go;
    He followed her to school one day—
    That was against the rule,
    It made the children laugh and play,
    To see a lamb at school.
    Sarah Josepha Buell Hale (1788–1879)

    Take example by your father, my boy, and be wery careful o’ vidders all your life, specially if they’ve kept a public house, Sammy.
    —Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
