Crone/examples

Famous quotes containing the words crone and/or examples:

    “Uplift those eyes and throw
    Those glances unafraid:
    She would as bravely show
    Did all the fabric fade;
    No withered crone I saw
    Before the world was made.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    It is hardly to be believed how spiritual reflections when mixed with a little physics can hold people’s attention and give them a livelier idea of God than do the often ill-applied examples of his wrath.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)
