Dear Lord London

Famous quotes containing the words dear, lord and/or london:

    For, dear me, why abandon a belief
    Merely because it ceases to be true.

    It will turn true again, for so it goes.

    much care of mind.He remembers too often
    a happier dwelling.Woe be to them
    that for a loved onemust wait in longing.
