Famous quotes containing the words robin and/or smith:

    ‘Lay me a green sod under my head,
    And another at my feet;
    And lay my bent bow at my side,
    Which was my music sweet;
    And make my grave of gravel and green,
    Which is most right and meet.
    —Unknown. Robin Hood’s Death (l. 65–70)

    I would rather be remembered by a song than by a victory.
    —Alexander Smith (1830–1867)
