Famous quotes containing the words opening and/or ceremony:

    Seeing myself well lost once more, I sighed,
    “Where, where in Heaven am I? But don’t tell me!
    O opening clouds, by opening on me wide.
    Let’s let my heavenly lostness overwhelm me.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    No ceremony that to great ones ‘longs,
    Not the king’s crown, nor the deputed sword,
    The marshal’s truncheon, nor the judge’s robe,
    Become them with one half so good a grace
    As mercy does.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
