Famous quotes containing the word smart:

    “Glorious the northern lights astream;
    Glorious the song, when God’s the theme
    Glorious the thunder’s roar:
    Glorious hosanna from the den;
    Glorious the catholic amen;
    Glorious the martyr’s gore:

    Glorious—more glorious is the crown
    Of him that brought salvation down
    By meekness, called thy Son;
    Thou that stupendous truth believed,
    And now the matchless deed’s achieved,
    Determined, Dared, and Done.”
    —Christopher Smart (1722–1771)
