Gordon Brotherston

Famous quotes containing the word gordon:

    The conqueror at least; who, ere Time renders
    His last award, will have the long grass grow
    Above his burnt-out brain and sapless cinders.
    If I might augur, I should rate but low
    Their chances: they are too numerous, like the thirty
    Mock tyrants, when Rome’s annals wax’d but dirty.
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
