Famous quotes containing the words tate and/or britain:

    “I feared
    The belly-cold, the grave-clout, that betrayed
    Me dithering in the drift of cordial seas;
    Ten years are time enough to be dismayed
    By mummy Christ, head crammed between his knees.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “I’ll stay until I’m tired of it. So long as Britain needs me, I shall never be tired of it.”
    —Margaret Thatcher (b. 1925)
