Sir Sydney

Famous quotes containing the words sir and/or sydney:

    O Lord! thou knowest how busy I must be this day: if I forget thee, do not thou forget me.
    Jacob, Sir Astley (1579–1652)

    What is more hopelessly uninteresting than accomplished liberty? Great swarming, teeming Sydney flowing out into these myriads of bungalows, like shallow waters spreading, undyked. And what then? Nothing. No inner life, no high command, no interest in anything finally.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
