Famous quotes containing the words high and and/or high:
“O mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O stay and hear, your true love’s coming,
That can sing both high and low.

Journeys end in lovers meeting,
Every wise man’s son doth know.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Under an old oak, whose boughs were mossed with age
And high top bald with dry antiquity.”
