Famous quotes containing the words base and/or court:
“They must to keep their certainty accuse
All that are different of a base intent;
Pull down established honour; hawk for news
Whatever their loose phantasy invent
And murmur it with bated breath....”

“A friend i’the court is better than a penny in purse.”
