Famous Quotes & Sayings

Alfred Lord Tennyson

There is no land like England, Where'er the light of day be; There are no hearts like English hearts, Such hearts of oak as they be; There is no land like England, Where'er the light of day be: There are no men like Englishmen, So tall and bold as they be! And these will strike for England, And man and maid be free To foil and spoil the tyrant Beneath the greenwood tree.

Either these things will be the blessing or the curse of our lives. Which do yon mean that they shall be for you?
