Tom Moore

Famous quotes containing the words tom and/or moore:

    The man that hails you Tom or Jack,
    And proves by thumps upon your back
    How he esteems your merit,
    Is such a friend, that one had need
    Be very much his friend indeed
    To pardon or to bear it.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)

    repression, however, is not the most obvious characteristic of the
    sea;
    the sea is a collector, quick to return a rapacious look.
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)
