Famous quotes containing the words king and/or father:
“What says the Clock in the Great Clock Tower?
And all alone comes riding there
The King that could make his people stare,
Because he had feathers instead of hair.
A slow low note and an iron bell.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“My father liked to moralize, and so do I. But he was in earnest, while I am embarrassed and pretend that I am merely being witty.”
