Greene King

Famous quotes containing the words greene and/or king:

“I have often noticed that a bribe ... has that effect—it changes a relation. The man who offers a bribe gives away a little of his own importance; the bribe once accepted, he becomes the inferior, like a man who has paid for a woman.”
—Graham Greene (1904–1991)

“The honest man, though e’er sae poor,
Is king o’ men, for a’ that!”
