Tom Foss

Famous quotes containing the words tom and/or foss:

    The man that hails you Tom or Jack,
    And proves by thumps upon your back
    How he esteems your merit,
    Is such a friend, that one had need
    Be very much his friend indeed
    To pardon or to bear it.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)

    Let me live in my house by the side of the road—
    It’s here the race of men go by.
    They are good, they are bad, they are weak, they are strong
    Wise, foolish—so am I;
    —Sam Walter Foss (1858–1911)
