Special Constable

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or constable:

    “The English language is nobody’s special property. It is the property of the imagination: it is the property of the language itself.”
    —Derek Walcott (b. 1930)

    “I did not know that thou wert dead before;
    I did not feel the grief I did sustain;
    The greater stroke astonisheth the more;
    Astonishment takes from us sense of pain.
    I stood amazed when other’s tears begun,
    And now begin to weep when they have done.”
    —Henry Constable (1562–1613)
