Prince Bishop

Famous quotes containing the words prince and/or bishop:

    A wholly materialistic city is nothing but a dream incarnate. Venice is the world’s unconscious, a miser’s glittering hoard, guarded by a Beast whose eyes are made of white agate, and by a saint who is really a prince who has just slain a dragon.
    Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)

    Arthur was very small.
    He was all white, like a doll
    that hadn’t been painted yet.
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
