Lord Cork

Famous quotes containing the words lord and/or cork:

Who was carried far out by the tide.

“How’s this for a lark?
I knew that the Lord would provide.””

“I am to be broken. I am to be derided all my life. I am to be cast up and down among these men and women, with their twitching faces, with their lying tongues, like a cork on a rough sea. Like a ribbon of weed I am flung far every time the door opens.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
