Village Board

Famous quotes containing the words village and/or board:

“Where village statesmen talked with looks profound,
And news much older than their ale went round.”

“And they heaved a mighty breath, every soul on board but me,
As they saw her nose again pointing handsome out to sea;
But all that I could think of, in the darkness and the cold,
Was just that I was leaving home and my folks were growing old.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
