Shelley/places

Famous quotes containing the words shelley and/or places:

    I have made my bed
    In charnels and on coffins, where black death
    Keeps record of the trophies won
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    A part, a large part, of travelling is an engagement of the ego v. the world.... The world is hydra headed, as old as the rocks and as changing as the sea, enmeshed inextricably in its ways. The ego wants to arrive at places safely and on time.
    Sybille Bedford (b. 1911)
