Famous quotes containing the words vale and/or maria:

    “Far from the madding crowd’s ignoble strife,
    Their sober wishes never learned to stray;
    Along the cool sequestered vale of life
    They kept the noiseless tenor of their way.”
    —Thomas Gray (1716–1771)

    “In each event of life, how clear
    Thy ruling hand I see!
    Each blessing to my soul more dear,
    Because conferred by Thee.”
    —Helen Maria Williams (18th century)
