Cease Fire

Famous quotes containing the words cease and/or fire:

    Bring me my Bow of burning gold:

    I will not cease from Mental Fight,
    Nor shall my Sword sleep in my hand,
    Till we have built Jerusalem
    In England’s green & pleasant Land.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    How the cold creeps as the fire dies at length
    How drifts are piled,
    Dooryard and road ungraded,
    Till even the comforting barn grows far away,
    And my heart owns a doubt
    Whether ‘tis in us to arise with day
    And save ourselves unaided.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
