Famous quotes containing the words german and/or council:
“That nameless and infinitely delicate aroma of inexpressible tenderness and attentiveness which, in every refined and honorable attachment, is contemporary with the courtship, and precedes the final banns and the rite; but which, like the bouquet of the costliest German wines, too often evaporates upon pouring love out to drink, in the disenchanting glasses of the matrimonial days and nights.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“There by some wrinkled stones round a leafless tree

Wandering the face of the earth a fatherless child....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
