Famous quotes containing the word vault:

    I dreamed, last night, that I could vault over any height it pleased me. That was something; and I contemplated myself with a slight satisfaction in the morning for it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Howl, howl, howl! O, you are men of stones!
    Had I your tongues and eyes, I’d use them so
    That heaven’s vault should crack. She’s gone forever.
    I know when one is dead and when one lives;
    She’s dead as earth.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Heaven froze above, severe; the clouds congeal,
    And through the crystal vault appeared the standing hail.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
