Famous quotes containing the words sir herbert, sir, miles and/or road:

    To fight without hope is to fight with grace,
    The self reconstructed, the false heart repaired.’
    Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)

    There are a sort of men whose visages
    Do cream and mantle like a standing pond,
    And do a willful stillness entertain,
    With purpose to be dressed in an opinion
    Of wisdom, gravity, profound conceit,
    As who should say, “I am Sir Oracle,
    And when I ope my lips let no dog bark!”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Isn’t it god’s own image? tramping his thirty miles a day
    after partridges, or a little rubber ball?
    wouldn’t you like to be like that, well off, and quite the thing?
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    The road to hell is paved with works-in-progress.
    Philip Roth (b. 1933)
