Mother Rooney

Famous quotes containing the words mother and/or rooney:

“My only objection to the arrangements there is the two-in-a-bed system. It is bad.... But let your words and conduct be perfectly pure—such as your mother might know without bringing a blush to your cheek.... If not already mentioned, do not tell your mother of the doubling in bed.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

“Then down, deep down, in the mighty ship, unseen by the midday
suns,
You’ll find the chaps who are giving the raps—the men behind the guns!”
