Fitz-Greene Halleck frases e citações

“Eles amam a sua terra porque é a sua própria, E desprezo para dar qualquer outra razão por que; Agitaria as mãos com um rei sobre seu trono, E pensa que é bondade para com Sua Majestade.”

“They love their land because it is their own, And scorn to give aught other reason why; Would shake hands with a king upon his throne, And think it kindness to his Majesty.”
