Son Wesley

Famous quotes containing the words son and/or wesley:

“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)

“And am I born to die?
To lay this body down?
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown?”
