Sir Hugh Cholmondeley

Famous quotes containing the words sir and/or hugh:

    Give me the critic bred in Nature’s school,
    Who neither talks by rote, nor thinks by rule;
    Who feeling’s honest dictates still obeys,
    And dares, without a precedent, to praise.
    Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)

    And not by eastern windows only,
    When daylight comes, comes in the light;
    In front the sun climbs slow, how slowly!
    But westward, look, the land is bright!
    —Arthur Hugh Clough (1819–1861)
