Famous quotes containing the word chair:

    A hundred cabinet-makers in London can work a table or a chair equally well; but no one poet can write verses with such spirit and elegance as Mr. Pope.

    This crib His chair of state;
    The beasts are parcel of His pomp,
    The wooden dish His plate.

    In every company
    That talked of love or politics,
    Ere Time transfigured me.
