Evil Sisters

Famous quotes containing the words evil and/or sisters:

    In those rare days, the press was seldom known to snarl or bark,
    But sweetly sang of men in pow’r, like any tuneful lark;
    Grave judges, too, to all their evil deeds were in the dark;
    And not a man in twenty score knew how to make his mark.
    Oh the fine old English Tory times;
    Charles Dickens (1812–1890)

    He’s made a harp of her breast-bane,
    Whose sound wad melt a heart of stane.

    He’s ta’en three locks o’ her yellow hair,
    And wi’ them strung his harp sae rare.
    Unknown. Binnorie; or, The Two Sisters (l. 41–44)
