Council Served

Famous quotes containing the words council and/or served:

    There by some wrinkled stones round a leafless tree
    With beards askew, their eyes dull and wild
    Twelve ragged men, the council of charity
    Wandering the face of the earth a fatherless child....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    How many things served us but yesterday as articles of faith, which today we deem but fables?
