Unknown. Hugh of Lincoln

Famous quotes containing the words unknown, hugh and/or lincoln:

    So that this beautiful realm of hers was held in her mind extended, or lengthened: it had been finite, bounded, known utterly and in every detail, self-enclosed ... but now it lapped and rippled out and upwards beyond there into hinterlands that were like unknown possibilities in her own mind.
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)

    He kicked the ball with his right foot,
    And catched it with his knee,
    And through and through the Jew’s window
    He gared the bonny ball flee.
    —Unknown. Hugh of Lincoln (l. 5–8)

    God gave man a mouth to receive bread, hands to feed it, and his hand has a right to carry bread to his mouth without controversy.
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
