Famous quotes containing the words weeks and/or queen:

    “When over Catholics the ocean rolls,
    They must wait several weeks before a mass
    Takes off one peck of purgatorial coals,
    Because, till people know what’s come to pass,
    They won’t lay out their money on the dead—
    It costs three francs for every mass that’s said.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “O Queen of air and darkness,
    I think ‘tis truth you say,
    And I shall die to-morrow;
    But you will die to-day.”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
