Principal Guest

Famous quotes containing the words principal and/or guest:

    The principal point of cleverness is to know how to value things just as they deserve.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    But must I confess how I liked him,
    How glad I was he had come like a guest in quiet, to drink at my
    water-trough
    And depart peaceful, pacified, and thankless,
    Into the burning bowels of this earth?
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
