Saint Thomas Middle

Famous quotes containing the words saint, thomas and/or middle:

    There’s so much saint in the worst of them,
    And so much devil in the best of them,
    That a woman who’s married to one of them,
    Has nothing to learn of the rest of them.
    Helen Rowland (1875–1950)

    A saint about to fall,
    The stained flats of heaven hit and razed
    To the kissed kite hems of his shawl....
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    There’s no telling what might have happened to our defense budget if Saddam Hussein hadn’t invaded Kuwait that August and set everyone gearing up for World War II½. Can we count on Saddam Hussein to come along every year and resolve our defense-policy debates? Given the history of the Middle East, it’s possible.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)
