Burial Ground

Famous quotes containing the words burial and/or ground:

“On the beach at night,
Stands a child with her father,
Watching the east, the autumn sky.

Up through the darkness,
While ravening clouds, the burial clouds, in black masses spreading,
Lower sullen and fast athwart and down the sky,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

“Just as the hand that strikes the ground cannot fail,
So is the ruin certain of him who cherishes anger.”
—Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)
