Famous quotes containing the words whistle and/or history:

    All we who prefer to live
    Have a little whistle we give,
    And flash, at the least alarm
    We dive down under the farm.

    Tell me of the height of the mountains of the moon, or of the diameter of space, and I may believe you, but of the secret history of the Almighty, and I shall pronounce thee mad.
