Lawrence Played

Famous quotes containing the words lawrence and/or played:

    Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright,
    The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light;
    And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout,
    But there is no joy in Mudville—Mighty Casey has struck
    out.
    —Ernest Lawrence Thayer (1863–1940)

    They played the eloquent tum-tum,
    And lived on scalps served up in rum—
    The only sauce they knew.
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
