Famous quotes containing the words odes and, odes and/or masques:
“They soon became like brothers from community of wrongs;
They wrote each other little odes and sang each other songs;
They told each other anecdotes disparaging their wives;
On several occasions, too, they saved each other’s lives.”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
“To be a woman and a writer
is double mischief, for
the world will slight her
who slights “the servile house,” and who would rather
make odes than beds.”
—Dilys Laing (1906–1960)
“I am a fellow o’the strangest mind i’the world; I delight in masques and revels sometimes altogether.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
