Cullen

Famous quotes containing the word cullen:

    All day long and all night through,
    One thing only must I do:
    Quench my pride and cool my blood,
    Lest I perish in the flood.
    —Countee Cullen (1903–1946)

    Thus change the forms of being. Thus arise
    Races of living things, glorious in strength,
    And perish, as the quickening breath of God
    Fills them, or is withdrawn.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    Truth, crushed to earth, shall rise again;
    Th’ eternal years of God are hers;
    But Error, wounded, writhes in pain,
    And dies among his worshippers.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
