General Sir Hugh

Famous quotes containing the words general, sir and/or hugh:

    If men would avoid that general language and general manner in which they strive to hide all that is peculiar and would say only what was uppermost in their own minds after their own individual manner, every man would be interesting.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    It is not God that is worshipped but the group or authority that claims to speak in His name. Sin becomes disobedience to authority not violation of integrity.
    Sarvepalli, Sir Radhakrishnan (1888–1975)

    He kicked the ball with his right foot,
    And catched it with his knee,
    And through and through the Jew’s window
    He gared the bonny ball flee.
    —Unknown. Hugh of Lincoln (l. 5–8)
