Famous quotes containing the word ghosts:

    Or when the lawn
    Is pressed by unseen feet, and ghosts return
    Gently at twilight, gently go at dawn,
    The sad intangible who grieve and yearn....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    What word have you, interpreters, of men
    Who in the tomb of heaven walk by night,
    The darkened ghosts of our old comedy?
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    I think a Person who is thus terrifyed [sic] with the Imagination of Ghosts and Spectres much more reasonable, than one who contrary to the Reports of all Historians sacred and profane, ancient and modern, and to the Traditions of all Nations, thinks the Appearance of Spirits fabulous and groundless.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
