White Protestant

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or protestant:

    “At middle night great cats with silver claws,
    Bodies of shadow and blind eyes like pearls,
    Came up out of the hole, and red-eared hounds
    With long white bodies came out of the air
    Suddenly, and ran at them and harried them.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “blow as he would, though it made a great noise,
    The flute would play only ‘The Protestant Boys’.”
    —Unknown. The Old Orange Flute (l. 23–24)
