Noble Plunkett

Famous quotes containing the words noble and/or plunkett:

    “Peter is poor,” said noble Paul,
    “And I have always been his friend:
    And, though my means to give are small,
    At least I can afford to lend.
    How few, in this cold age of greed,
    Do good, except on selfish grounds!
    But I can feel for Peter’s need,
    And I WILL LEND HIM FIFTY POUNDS!”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    I see His blood upon the rose,
    And in the stars the glory of His eyes
    His body gleams amid eternal snows,
    His tears fall from the skies.
    —Joseph Mary Plunkett (1887–1916)
