Crowds/scale

Famous quotes containing the words crowds and/or scale:

“Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
And even old men’s eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping-place
Babbling of fallen majesty, records what’s gone.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“How many women does one need to sing the scale of love all the way up and down?”
—Georg Büchner (1813–1837)
