Crowned

Famous quotes containing the word crowned:

“When you’re crowned Miss America, they put you up on a pedestal. People really look up to you and they think you’re perfect. They think that you have everything that you’ve ever wanted or dreamed about in life.”

“A centaur-herd,
Wild-horses, crowned with grass,
Swept among the feasting gods
With fir-shoots
Toward the wine-jars.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“But he her fears to cease
Sent down the meek-eyed Peace;
She, crowned with olive green, came softly sliding
Down through the turning sphere,
His ready harbinger,
With turtle wing the amorous clouds dividing,
And waving wide her myrtle wand,
She strikes a universal peace through sea and land.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
