Famous quotes containing the words played and/or price:
“You played a party with a prince and Miss de Zuylen. You was shocked, or rather offended, with her unlimited vivacity.”
—James Boswell (1740–1795)
“Forced from home, and all its pleasures,
Afric’s coast I left forlorn;
To increase a stranger’s treasures,
O’er the raging billows borne.
Men from England bought and sold me,
Paid my price in paltry gold;
But, though theirs they have enroll’d me,
Minds are never to be sold.”
—William Cowper (1731–1800)
