Famous quotes containing the words twelve and/or oaks:

“Whoever thinks of going to bed before twelve o’clock is a scoundrel.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

“He had the oaks for heating and for light.
He had a hen, he had a pig in sight.
He had a well, he had the rain to catch.
He had a ten-by-twenty garden patch.
Nor did he lack for common entertainment.
That I assume was what our passing train meant.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
