Street Methodist Episcopal

Famous quotes containing the words street and/or methodist:

    “The sturdy Irish arms that do the work are of more worth than oak or maple. Methinks I could look with equanimity upon a long street of Irish cabins, and pigs and children reveling in the genial Concord dirt; and I should still find my Walden Wood and Fair Haven in their tanned and happy faces.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “When Methodist preachers come down
    A-preaching that drinking is sinful,
    I’ll wager the rascals a crown
    They always preach best with a skinful.”
    —Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)
