Fair Maid of Brittany

Famous quotes containing the words fair and/or maid:

    Tell her that goes
    With song upon her lips
    But sings not out the song, nor knows
    The maker of it, some other mouth,
    May be as fair as hers,
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    Where has Maid Quiet gone to,
    Nodding her russet hood?
    The winds that awakened the stars
    Are blowing through my blood.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
