Famous quotes containing the words opening and/or ceremony:

    Fellow citizens, I have been called upon to conduct this opening meeting of the Osage First Methodist-Episcopalian-Presbyterian-Congregational-Baptist-Catholic-Unitarian-Hebrew Church.
    Howard Estabrook (1884–1978)

    No ceremony that to great ones ‘longs,
    Not the king’s crown, nor the deputed sword,
    The marshal’s truncheon, nor the judge’s robe,
    Become them with one half so good a grace
    As mercy does.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
