Famous quotes containing the words pat and/or takes:
“Helen, Helen,
the kitchen is your dog
and you pat it
and love it
and keep it clean.”

“I did not know that thou wert dead before;
I did not feel the grief I did sustain;
The greater stroke astonisheth the more;
Astonishment takes from us sense of pain.
I stood amazed when other’s tears begun,
And now begin to weep when they have done.”
—Henry Constable (1562–1613)
