Famous quotes containing the words proper and/or list:
“A decent chap, a real good sort,
Straight as a die, one of the best,
A brick, a trump, a proper sport,
Head and shoulders above the rest;
How many lives would have been duller
Had he not been here below?
Heres to the whitest man I know
Though white is not my favourite colour.”
