Famous quotes containing the words lamb melbourne and/or lamb:
“Your friends praise your abilities to the skies, submit to you in argument, and seem to have the greatest deference for you; but, though they may ask it, you never find them following your advice upon their own affairs; nor allowing you to manage your own, without thinking that you should follow theirs. Thus, in fact, they all think themselves wiser than you, whatever they may say.”

Where they shut up the lamb at night.
We looked in an seen them huddled thar,
So warm an sleepy an white;
An THAR sot Little Breeches an chirped,
As peart as ever you see,
I wants a chaw of terbacky,
An thats whats the matter of me.”
