Sherwood

Famous quotes containing the word sherwood:

    Rome, like Washington, is small enough, quiet enough, for strong personal intimacies; Rome, like Washington, has its democratic court and its entourage of diplomatic circle; Rome, like Washington, gives you plenty of time and plenty of sunlight. In New York we have annihilated both.
    —M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    Nobody expects him to be normal—he’s a bishop.
    —Robert E. Sherwood (1896–1955)

    The radical changes in society from the small, well-considered hundreds to the countless thousands have of course destroyed the neighborly character of the strange conglomerate. It is more ornamental and much more luxurious now than then.
    —M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
