Famous quotes containing the words herbert, joseph and/or thompson:

    “When first my lines of heavenly joys made mention,
    Such was their luster, they did so excel,
    That I sought out quaint words and trim invention;
    My thoughts began to burnish, sprout, and swell,
    Curling with metaphors a plain intention,
    Decking the sense as if it were to sell.”
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)

    —Joseph L. Mankiewicz, U.S. director, screenwriter. Joseph L. Mankiewicz. “Cicero” (James Mason)

    Against the progress of the stars,
    And stayed the march of Motherland!”
