Pearl Sack

Famous quotes containing the words pearl and/or sack:

“For the first fourteen years for a rod they do whine,
For the next as a pearl in the world they do shine,
For the next trim beauty beginneth to swerve,
For the next matrons or drudges they serve,
For the next doth crave a staff for a stay,
For the next a bier to fetch them away.”
—Thomas Tusser (c. 1520–1580)

“If sack and sugar be a fault, God help the wicked! If to be
old and merry be a sin, then many an old host that I know is
damned.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
