Bishop Pair

Famous quotes containing the words bishop and/or pair:

    Whether they knew or not,
    Goldsmith and Burke, Swift and the Bishop of Cloyne
    All hated Whiggery; but what is Whiggery?
    A levelling, rancorous, rational sort of mind
    That never looked out of the eye of a saint
    Or out of drunkard’s eye.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Auld Noah was at hame wi’ them a’,
    The lion and the lamb,
    Pair by pair they entered the Ark
    And he took them as they cam’.
    Hugh MacDiarmid (1892–1978)
