Mission Bells

Famous quotes containing the words mission and/or bells:

    Perhaps the mission of those who love mankind is to make people laugh at the truth, to make truth laugh, because the only truth lies in learning to free ourselves from insane passion for the truth.
    Umberto Eco (b. 1932)

    Pancakes and fritters,
    Say the bells of St. Peter’s.
    Two sticks and an apple,
    Say the bells of Whitechapel.

    Kettles and pans,
    Say the bells of St. Ann’s.
    —Unknown. The Bells of London (l. 7–12)
