Official Sung Verse

Famous quotes containing the words official, sung and/or verse:

    ... it is a rather curious thing to have to divide one’s life into personal and official compartments and temporarily put the personal side into its hidden compartment to be taken out again when one’s official duties are at an end.
    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)

    I smiled at the speech you spoke,
    At your judgement that I heard:
    But I have not often smiled
    Since then, nor questioned since,
    Nor cared for corn-flowers wild,
    Nor sung with the singing bird.
    Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    All which is not prose is verse; and all which is not verse is prose.
    Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)
