Leather Pride

Famous quotes containing the words leather and/or pride:

“What shall he have that killed the deer?
His leather skin and horns to wear.
Then sing him home.
Take thou no scorn to wear the horn,
It was a crest ere thou wast born;
Thy father’s father wore it,
And thy father bore it.
The horn, the horn, the lusty horn
Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Beauty that shocks you, parts that none will trust,
Wit that can creep, and pride that licks the dust.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
