Grindley Brook Lock

Famous quotes containing the words brook and/or lock:

    When the enterprising burglar isn’t burgling,
    When the cut-throat isn’t occupied in crime,
    He loves to hear the little brook a-gurgling,
    And listen to the merry village chime.
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    Don’t lock me in wedlock, I want
    marriage, an
    encounter....
