Heard

Famous quotes containing the word heard:

    When I was one-and-twenty
    I heard a wise man say,
    “Give crowns and pounds and guineas
    But not your heart away;
    Give pearls away and rubies,
    But keep your fancy free.”
    But I was one-and-twenty,
    No use to talk to me.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    Have you heard of the wonderful one-hoss shay,

    It ran a hundred years to a day,
