Famous quotes containing the words english and/or shepherds:

“The mob has many heads but no brains.”
—17th-century English proverb, collected in Thomas Fuller, Gnomologia (1732)

“You make yourselves out to be shepherds of the flock and yet you allow your sheep to live in filth and poverty. And if they try and raise their voices against it, you calm them by telling them their suffering is the will of God. Sheep, indeed. Are we sheep to be herded and sheared by a handful of owners? I was taught man was made in the image of God, not a sheep.”
—Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
