Famous quotes containing the words shirley and/or douglas:

    “The glories of our blood and state
    Are shadows, not substantial things;
    There is no armour against fate;
    Death lays his icy hand on kings:
    Sceptre and crown
    Must tumble down,
    And in the dust be equal made
    With the poor crooked scythe and spade.”
    —James Shirley (1596–1666)

    “If you want to know about a man you can find out an awful lot by looking at who he married.”
    —Kirk Douglas (b. 1916)
