Famous quotes containing the word saint:

    “Upon Saint Crispin’s day
    Fought was this noble fray,
    Which fame did not delay
    To England to carry.
    On when shall Englishmen
    With such acts fill a pen,
    Or England breed again
    Such a King Harry?”
    —Michael Drayton (1563–1631)
