Sir Thomas Pakenham

Famous quotes containing the words sir and/or thomas:

    Television thrives on unreason, and unreason thrives on television. It strikes at the emotions rather than the intellect.
    Robin, Sir Day (b. 1915)

    He holds the wire from this box of nerves
    Praising the moral error
    Of birth and death, the two sad knaves of thieves,
    And the hunger’s emperor;
    He pulls the chain, the cistern moves.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
