Bow Ties

Famous quotes containing the words bow and/or ties:

“Commerce has set the mark of selfishness,
The signet of its all-enslaving power,
Upon a shining ore, and called it gold:
Before whose image bow the vulgar great,
The vainly rich, the miserable proud,
The mob of peasants, nobles, priests, and kings,
And with blind feelings reverence the power
That grinds them to the dust of misery.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

“Sudden and swift and light as that
The ties gave,
And he learned of finalities
Beside the grave.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
