Lord Admiral

Famous quotes containing the words lord and/or admiral:

    But at the coming of the King of Heaven
    All’s set at six and seven:
    We wallow in our sin;
    Christ cannot finde a chamber in the inn.
    —Unknown. Yet if His Majesty, Our Sovereign Lord (l. 25–28)

    In this country it is a good thing to kill an admiral from time to time to encourage the others.
