Bronze Statues

Famous quotes containing the words bronze and/or statues:

    “Both nuns and mothers worship images,
    But those the candles light are not as those
    That animate a mother’s reveries,
    But keep a marble or a bronze repose.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “But have you wine and music still,
    And statues and a bright-eyed love,
    And foolish thoughts of good and ill,
    And prayers to them who sit above?”
