Grey Livery

Famous quotes containing the words grey and/or livery:

“Perhaps you have been busy
Horse-whipping Sal or Lizzie,
Stealing some poor man’s baby,
Selling its mother, maybe.”
—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)
