Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or judgement:
“Shes somebodys mother, boys, you know,
For all shes aged and poor and slow,
And I hope some fellow will lend a hand
To help my mother, you understand,

When her own dear boy is far away.”

“Thyself thou gavst, thy own worth then not knowing,
Or me, to whom thou gavst it, else mistaking;
So thy great gift, upon misprision growing,
Comes home again, on better judgement making.
Thus have I had thee, as a dream doth flatter,
In sleep a king, but, waking, no such matter.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
