Drove Grave Digger

Famous quotes containing the words drove and/or grave:

    What was it that drove these thousands into the arms of his art—what but the blissfully sensuous, searing, sense-consuming, intoxicating, hypnotically caressing, heavily upholstered—in a word, the luxurious quality of his music?
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    “If little planned is little sinned
    But little need the grave distress.
    What’s dying but a second wind?
    How but in zig-zag wantonness
    Could trumpeter Michael be so brave?”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
