Famous quotes containing the words previous and/or owners:

    “I will frankly declare, that after passing a few weeks in this valley of the Marquesas, I formed a higher estimate of human nature than I had ever before entertained. But alas! since then I have been one of the crew of a man-of-war, and the pent-up wickedness of five hundred men has nearly overturned all my previous theories.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “O, these naughty times
    Puts bars between the owners and their rights!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
