White Protestant

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or protestant:

    It is snowing and death bugs me
    as stubborn as insomnia.
    The fierce bubbles of chalk,
    the little white lesions
    settle on the street outside.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    So the old flute was doomed and its fate was pathetic,
    ‘Twas fastened and burned at the stake as heretic,
    While the flames roared around it they heard a strange
    noise—
    ‘Twas the old flute still whistling ‘The Protestant Boys’.
    —Unknown. The Old Orange Flute (l. 37–40)
