Famous quotes containing the words sound, king and/or crab:

    Let children know you are human. It’s important for children to see that parents are human and make mistakes. When you’re sorry about something you’ve said or done, apologize! But don’t sound guilt ridden. It is best when parents apologize in a manner that is straightforward and sincere.
    Saf Lerman (20th century)

    And this is law, I will maintain,
    Until my dying day, Sir,
    That whatsoever king shall reign,
    I’ll be the Vicar of Bray, Sir.
    —Unknown. The Vicar of Bray (l. 9–12)

    I love no roast but a nut-brown toast, and a crab laid in the fire;
    A little bread shall do me stead! much bread I do not desire;
    William Stevenson (1530?–1575)
