Famous quotes containing the words higher, mother and/or tongue:

    There is one thing higher than Royalty: and that is religion, which causes us to leave the world, and seek God.

    The dream of reason produces monsters. Imagination deserted by reason creates impossible, useless thoughts. United with reason, imagination is the mother of all art and the source of all its beauty.
    —Francisco José De Goya Y Lucientes (1746–1828)

    She that was ever fair, and never proud,
    Had tongue at will, and yet was never loud
    ...
    She that could think, and ne’er disclose her mind,
    See suitors following, and not look behind.
    She was a wight, if ever such wight were—
    To suckle fools and chronicle small beer.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
