Alfred Tennyson

Famous quotes containing the words alfred tennyson and/or tennyson:

    Much have I seen and known—cities of men
    And manners, climates, councils, governments,
    Myself not least, but honored of them all—
    And drunk delight of battle with my peers,
    Far on the ringing plains of windy Troy.
    I am a part of all that I have met;
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    That man’s the true Conservative
    Who lops the mouldered branch away.
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
