Helme Snuff Mill

Famous quotes containing the words snuff and/or mill:

    O you mighty gods!
    This world I do renounce, and in your sights
    Shake patiently my great affliction off.
    If I could bear it longer, and not fall
    To quarrel with your great opposeless wills,
    My snuff and loathed part of nature should
    Burn itself out.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The only power deserving the name is that of masses, and of governments while they make themselves the organ of the tendencies and instincts of masses.
    —John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)
