Penny Proud

Famous quotes containing the words penny and/or proud:

    “I had not given a penny for a song
    Did not the poet sing it with such airs
    That one believed he had a sword upstairs;
    Yet would be now, could I but have my wish,
    Colder and dumber and deafer than a fish.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Raise a million filters and the rain will not be clean, until the longing for it be refined in deep confession. And still we hear, If only this nation had a soul, or, Let us change the way we trade, or, Let us be proud of our region.”
    —Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)
