Ring History

Famous quotes containing the words ring and/or history:

“Full fathom five thy father lies,
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes;
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange.
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell:
Ding-dong.
Hark! Now I hear them—ding-dong bell.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“The history of the world is the record of the weakness, frailty and death of public opinion.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
