Longer Sing

Famous quotes containing the words longer and/or sing:

    Being a father
    Is quite a bother . . .
    You improve them mentally
    And straighten them dentally, . . .
    They’re no longer corralable
    Once they find that you’re fallible . . .
    But after you’ve raised them and educated them and
    gowned them,
    They just take their little fingers and wrap you around
    them.
    Being a father
    Is quite a bother,
    But I like it, rather.
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    Mother and maiden
    Was never none but she;
    Well may such a lady
    Goddes mother be.
    —Unknown. I Sing of a Maiden (l. 17–20)
