Famous quotes containing the word sherwood:

    The poor are always ragged and dirty, in very picturesque clothes, and on their poor shoes lies the earth of the Lacustrine period. And yet what a privilege it is to be even a beggar in Rome!
    —M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    It is better to pay court to a queen ... than to worship, as we too often do, some unworthy person whose wealth is his sole passport into society. I believe that a habit of respect is good for the human race.
    —M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
