Famous quotes containing the words turns, due and/or east:
“Experience has taught me never to trust a policeman. Just when you think ones all right, he turns legit.”
—Ben Maddow (19091992)
“Praise is a more ingenious, concealed, and subtle kind of flattery, that satisfies both the giver and the receiver, though by very different ways. The one accepts it as a reward due to his merit; the other gives it that he may be looked upon as a just and discerning person.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (16131680)
“Ah! on Thanksgiving day, when from East and from West,
From North and from South, come the pilgrim and guest,
When the gray-haired New Englander sees round his board
The old broken links of affection restored,
When the care-wearied man seeks his mother once more,
And the worn matron smiles where the girl smiled before.
What moistens the lip and what brightens the eye?
What calls back the past, like the rich Pumpkin pie?”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (18071892)
