Famous quotes containing the words lord and/or mayor:

    Now I lay me down to sleep,
    I pray the Lord my soul to keep;
    If I should die before I wake,
    I pray the Lord my soul to take.
    —Unknown. Now I Lay Me Down to Take My Sleep (l. 1–4)

    If a large city can, after intense intellectual efforts, choose for its mayor a man who merely will not steal from it, we consider it a triumph of the suffrage.
