Celia Brooke

Famous quotes containing the words celia and/or brooke:

    When other Ladies to the Shades go down,
    Still Flavia, Chloris, Celia stay in Town;
    Those Ghosts of Beauty ling’ring there abide,
    And haunt the places where their Honour dy’d.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    And I shall find some girl perhaps,
    And a better one than you,
    With eyes as wise, but kindlier,
    And lips as soft, but true,
    And I daresay she will do.
    —Rupert Brooke (1887–1915)
