Famous quotes containing the words shirley and/or jackson:
“Victorious men of earth, no more
Proclaim how wide your empires are;
Though you bind in every shore
And your triumphs reach as far
As night or day,
Yet you, proud monarchs, must obey
And mingle with forgotten ashes, when
Death calls ye to the crowd of common men.”
—James Shirley (1596–1666)
“I am a Senator against my wishes and feelings, which I regret more than any other of my life.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
