Bishop Pair

Famous quotes containing the words bishop and/or pair:

    his shuddering insights, beyond his control,
    touching him. But it took him a long time
    finally to make his mind up to go home.
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    I saw a guide-post surmounted by a pair of moose horns.... They are sometimes used for ornamental hat-trees, together with deer’s horns, in front entries; but ... I trust that I shall have a better excuse for killing a moose than that I may hang my hat on his horns.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
