Elizabeth City County

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or county:

“Och, Dublin City, there is no doubtin’,
Bates every city upon the say;
‘Tis there you’ll see O’Connell spoutin’,
An’ Lady Morgan makin’ tay;
For ‘tis the capital of the finest nation,
Wid charmin’ pisintry on a fruitful sod,
Fightin’ like divils for conciliation
An’ hatin’ each other for the love of God.”
—Charles James Lever (1809–1872)

“In the county there are thirty-seven churches
and no butcher shop. This could be taken
as a matter of all form and no content.”
