Grey Livery

Famous quotes containing the words grey and/or livery:

    Abolitionists were men of sharp angles. Organizing them was like binding crooked sticks in a bundle.
    —Jane Grey Swisshelm (1815–1884)

    Whether, if you yield not to your father’s choice,
    You can endure the livery of a nun,
    For aye to be in shady cloister mewed,
    To live a barren sister all your life,
    Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon.
    Thrice blessed they that master so their blood
    To undergo such maiden pilgrimage.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
