Winding Gear

Famous quotes containing the words winding and/or gear:

    Few, few shall part, where many meet!
    The snow shall be their winding sheet,
    And every turf, beneath their feet,
    Shall be a soldier’s sepulchre.
    Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)

    But Lord, remember me and mine
    Wi’ mercies temporal and divine!
    That I for grace and gear may shine,
    Excelled by nane!
    And a’ the glory shall be thine!
    Amen! Amen!
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)
