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)

    This death’s livery which walled its bearers from ordinary life was sign that they have sold their wills and bodies to the State: and contracted themselves into a service not the less abject for that its beginning was voluntary.
    —T.E. (Thomas Edward)
