Slave Girl

Famous quotes containing the words slave and/or girl:

    The soldier takes pride in saluting his Captain,
    The devotee proffers a knee to his Lord,
    Some back a mare thrown from a thoroughbred,
    Troy backed its Helen, Troy died and adored;
    Great nations blossom above,
    A slave bows down to a slave.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    It’s my old girl that advises. She has the head. But I never own to it before her. Discipline must be maintained.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
