Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or watson:

    Under the heavens that know not what years be
    The men, the beasts, the trees, the implements
    Uttered even what they will in times far hence—
    All of us gone out of the reach of change—
    Immortal in a picture of an old grange.
    —Edward Thomas (1878–1917)

    His friends he loved. His direst earthly foes—
    Cats—I believe he did but feign to hate.
    My hand will miss the insinuated nose,
    Mine eyes the tail that wagg’d contempt at Fate.
    —Sir William Watson (1858–1935)
