Famous quotes containing the words ecstasy and/or rising:
“As a small child, I felt in my heart two contradictory feelings, the horror of life and the ecstasy of life.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“Even Lust the Master of a hardned Face,
Blushes if thou beest in the place,
To darkness’ Curtains he retires,
In Sympathizing Night he rowls his smoaky Fires.
When, Goddess, thou liftst up thy wakened Head,
Out of the Mornings purple bed,
Thy Quire of Birds about thee play,
And all the joyful world salutes the rising day.”
—Abraham Cowley (1618–1667)
