Hard Pack

Famous quotes containing the words hard and/or pack:

    To coxcombs averse, yet most civilly steering,
    When they judged without skill he was still hard of hearing:
    When they talked of their Raphaels, Corregios and stuff,
    He shifted his trumpet, and only took snuff.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)

    Madame Sosostris, famous clairvoyante,
    Had a bad cold, nevertheless
    Is known to be the wisest woman in Europe,
    With a wicked pack of cards.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
