Large Hill

Famous quotes containing the words large and/or hill:

    The receipt to make a speaker, and an applauded one too, is short and easy.—Take of common sense quantum sufficit, add a little application to the rules and orders of the House, throw obvious thoughts in a new light, and make up the whole with a large quantity of purity, correctness, and elegancy of style.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    John Anderson my jo, John,
    We clamb the hill the gither;
    And mony a canty day, John,
    We’ve had wi’ ane anither:
    Now we maun totter down, John,
    And hand in hand we’ll go;
    And sleep the gither at the foot,
    John Anderson my Jo.
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)
