Famous quotes containing the word allan:
“And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demons that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light oer him streaming throws his shadow on the
floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be liftednevermore!”
—Edgar Allan Poe (18091849)
