White Protestant

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or protestant:

    “A decent chap, a real good sort,
    Straight as a die, one of the best,
    A brick, a trump, a proper sport,
    Head and shoulders above the rest;
    How many lives would have been duller
    Had he not been here below?
    Here’s to the whitest man I know
    Though white is not my favourite colour.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “There was a young lady called Alice
    Who peed in a Catholic chalice.
    The Padre agreed
    It was done out of need
    And not out of Protestant malice.”
    —Anonymous.
