Judge Thayer

Famous quotes containing the words judge and/or thayer:

    Why the jailer does not leave open his prison doors,—why the judge does not dismiss his case,—why the preacher does not dismiss his congregation! It is because they do not obey the hint God gives them, nor accept the pardon which he freely offers to all.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    With a smile of Christian charity great Casey’s visage shone;
    He stilled the rising tumult, he made the game go on;
