Pipe

Famous quotes containing the word pipe:

    When you can pipe that merry old strain,
    Robert of Lincoln, come back again.
    William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    It is not that the Englishman can’t feel—it is that he is afraid to feel. He has been taught at his public school that feeling is bad form. He must not express great joy or sorrow, or even open his mouth too wide when he talks—his pipe might fall out if he did.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    Wind and Thistle for pipe and dancers
    And never a ploughman under the Sun.
    Never a ploughman. Never a one.
    Hilaire Belloc (1870–1953)
