Weeping Statues

Famous quotes containing the words weeping and/or statues:

    “And now where e’re he strayes
    Among the Galilaean mountains,
    Or more unwelcome wayes,
    Hee’s follow’d by two faithfull fountaines,
    Two walking Baths, two weeping motions;
    Portable and compendious Oceans.”
    —Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)

    “There’s a wonderful family called Stein:
    There’s Gert and there’s Ep and there’s Ein.
    Gert’s poems are bunk,
    Ep’s statues are junk,
    And no-one can understand Ein.”
    —Anonymous.
