Famous quotes containing the word edwin:

    “A good soul like a good body should be as unobtrusive as possible; in so far as it functions properly, it should not be noticed for good or for ill.”
    —C.E.M. (Cyril Edwin Mitchinson)

    “Conscience was the barmaid of the Victorian soul. Recognizing that human beings were fallible and that their failings, though regrettable, must be humoured, conscience would permit, rather ungraciously perhaps, the indulgence of a number of carefully selected desires.”
    —C.E.M. (Cyril Edwin Mitchinson)
