Crowds/attacks

Famous quotes containing the words crowds and/or attacks:

“Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
And even old men’s eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping-place
Babbling of fallen majesty, records what’s gone.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“Neither the wrath of Heaven nor the attacks of enemies
are as fatal as Pleasure alone when she infects the mind.”
—Silius Italicus (26–101)
