Tenth Duke

Famous quotes containing the words tenth and/or duke:

“Of Ickworth’s boys, their father’s joys,
There is but one a bad one;
The tenth is he, the parson’s fee,
And indeed he is a sad one.
No love of fame, no sense of shame,
And a bad heart, let me tell ye:
Without, all brass; within, all ass,
And the puppy’s name is Felly.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)

“The thing that impresses me most about America is the way parents obey their children.”
—Edward, Duke of Windsor (1894–1972)
