Proud Edward

Famous quotes containing the words proud and/or edward:

    ‘What news, what news, my proud young porter,
    What news, what news has thou brought to me?’
    Unknown. Young Beichan (l. 57–58)

    Some have too much, yet still do crave;
    I little have, and seek no more.
    They are but poor, though much they have,
    And I am rich with little store.
    They poor, I rich; they beg, I give;
    They lack, I leave; they pine, I live.
    —Sir Edward Dyer (c. 1540–1607)
