Famous quotes containing the words tale and/or finished:
“Like a tale of little meaning though the words are strong;
Chanted from an ill-used race of men that cleave the soil,
Sow the seed, and reap the harvest with enduring toil,
Storing yearly little dues of wheat, and wine and oil;
Till they perish and they suffersome, tis
whispereddown in hell”
—Alfred Tennyson (18091892)
“A holiday is when you celebrate something thats all finished up, that happened a long time ago and now theres nothing left to celebrate but the dead.”
—Abraham Polonsky (b. 1910)
