Famous quotes containing the words spring, hill and/or fair:

    Honour, thou first didst close
    The spring of all delight,
    Denying water to the amorous thirst;
    Torquato Tasso (1544–1595)

    And then the man whom Sorrow named his friend
    Cried out, Dim sea, hear my most piteous story!
    The sea swept on and cried her old cry still,
    Rolling along in dreams from hill to hill.
    He fled the persecution of her glory....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    In religion,
    What damned error but some sober brow
    Will bless it, and approve it with a text,
    Hiding the grossness with fair ornament?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
