Famous quotes containing the words neck and/or bottle:
“The wisdom of history, how she takes
Each epoch by the neck and, growling, shakes
It like a rat while she faintly mews.”

“Give me my scallop-shell of quiet,
My staff of faith to walk upon,
My scrip of joy, immortal diet,
My bottle of salvation,
My gown of glory, hope’s true gage,
And thus I’ll take my pilgrimage.”
—Sir Walter Raleigh (1552–1618)
