Booth Tells

Famous quotes containing the words booth and/or tells:

    A man’s labour is not only his capital but his life. When it passes it returns never more. To utilise it, to prevent its wasteful squandering, to enable the poor man to bank it up for use hereafter, this surely is one of the most urgent tasks before civilisation.
    —William Booth (1829–1912)

    When men shall find thy flow’r, thy glory, pass,
    And thou with careful brow, sitting alone,
    Received hast this message from thy glass,
    That tells the truth and says that All is gone;
    Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)
