Famous quotes containing the words herbert and/or mankiewicz:

    Sometimes Death, puffing at the doore,
    Blows all the dust about the floore:
    But while he thinks to spoil the room, he sweeps.
    Blest be the Architect, whose art
    Could build so strong in a weak heart.
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)
