Famous quotes containing the words forbidden and/or planet:
“On whose forbidden ear
The distant strains of triumph
Burst agonized and clear!”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“Spring is strong and virtuous,
Broad-sowing, cheerful, plenteous,
Quickening underneath the mould
Grains beyond the price of gold.
So deep and large her bounties are,
That one broad, long midsummer day
Shall to the planet overpay
The ravage of a year of war.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
