Famous quotes containing the words walter and/or clarke:

    O eloquent, just, and mighty Death! whom none could advise, thou hast persuaded; what none hath dared, thou hast done; and whom all the world hath flattered, thou only hath cast out of the world and despised. Thou hast drawn together all the far-stretched greatness, all the pride, cruelty, and ambition of man, and covered it all over with these two narrow words, Hic jacet!
    —Sir Walter Raleigh (1552–1618)

    Mr. Clarke played the King all evening as though under constant fear that someone else was about to play the Ace.
    Eugene Field (1850–1895)
