Shirt Worn

Famous quotes containing the words shirt and/or worn:

    “Sir Eglamour, that worthy knight,
    He took his sword and went to fight;
    And as he rode both hill and dale,
    Armed upon his shirt of mail,
    A dragon came out of his den,
    Had slain, God knows how many men!”
    —Samuel Rowlands (1570?–1630?)

    “Flame burns, rain sinks into the cracks
    And they all go to rack ruin beneath the thud of the years,
    Stands genius a deathless adornment,
    a name not to be worn out with the years.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
