Wedding Bells

Famous quotes containing the words wedding and/or bells:

    Men may conseile a womman to be oon,
    But conseiling nis no comandement.
    He putte it in oure owene juggement.
    For hadde God comanded maidenhede,
    Thanne hadde he dampned wedding with the deede;
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    The Church disowned, the tower overthrown, the bells upturned, what have we to do
    But stand with empty hands and palms turned upwards
    In an age which advances progressively backwards?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
