Famous quotes containing the word title:
“Now that the steam engine rules the world, a title is an absurdity, still I am all dressed up in this title. It will crush me if I do not support it. The title attracts attention to myself.”

A haunted house. Tenants unknown
Assert their squalid lease of sin
With earlier title than his own.”
