Nicholas Browne

Famous quotes containing the words nicholas and/or browne:

    ‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
    Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
    The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
    In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
    The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
    While visions of sugarplums danced in their heads;
    Clement Clarke Moore (1779–1863)

    We all labour against our own cure, for death is the cure of all diseases.
    —Thomas Browne (1605–1682)
