Son Philip

Famous quotes containing the words son and/or philip:

    In the middle classes the gifted son of a family is always the poorest—usually a writer or artist with no sense for speculation—and in a family of peasants, where the average comfort is just over penury, the gifted son sinks also, and is soon a tramp on the roadside.
    —J.M. (John Millington)

    Oft have I mused, but now at length I find,
    Why those that die, men say they do depart.
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
