Famous quotes containing the word angels:

    Entertaining angels unawares: It is always we who are to entertain the angels, and never they us. I cannot, however, think that an angel would be a very entertaining person, either as guest or host.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    when such bodies join
    There is no touching here, nor touching there,
    Nor straining joy, but whole is joined to whole;
    For the intercourse of angels is a light
    Where for its moment both seem lost, consumed.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Sad men made angels of the sun, and of
    The moon they made their own attendant ghosts,
    Which led them back to angels, after death.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
