Sir Gilbert Elliot

Famous quotes containing the words sir, gilbert and/or elliot:

    It is not God that is worshipped but the group or authority that claims to speak in His name. Sin becomes disobedience to authority not violation of integrity.
    Sarvepalli, Sir Radhakrishnan (1888–1975)

    It’s true I’ve got no shirts to wear;
    It’s true my butcher’s bill is due;
    It’s true my prospects all look blue—
    But don’t let that unsettle you:
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    I’ll be right here.
