Famous quotes containing the word angels:

    “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)

    “In the greenest of our valleys
    By good angels tenanted,
    Once a fair and stately palace—
    Radiant palace—reared its head.
    In the monarch Thought’s dominion,
    It stood there!”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “It is not because angels are holier than men or devils that makes them angels, but because they do not expect holiness from one another, but from God only.”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)
