Famous quotes containing the words michael and/or nelson:

    While Michael Angelo’s Sistine roof,
    His “Morning” and his “Night” disclose
    How sinew that has been pulled tight,
    Or it may be loosened in repose,
    Can rule by supernatural right
    Yet be but sinew.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    From now on, if I ever get to burn another newspaper, I’ll remember what a few cents can buy.
