Famous quotes containing the word caves:

    “A jellyfish and a saurian,
    And caves where the cave men dwell;
    Then a sense of law and beauty,
    And a face turned from the clod—
    Some call it Evolution,
    And others call it God.”
    —William Herbet Carruth (1859–1929)

    “Full many a gem of purest ray serene,
    The dark unfathom’d caves of ocean bear:
    Full many a flower is born to blush unseen,
    And waste its sweetness on the desert air.”
    —Thomas Gray (1716–1771)

    “Repent, repent, and from old errors turn!’
    Who listened to his voice, obeyed his cry?
    Only the echoes, which he made relent,
    Rung from their marble caves ‘Repent! Repent!’”
    —William Drummond, of Hawthornden (1585–1649)
