Famous quotes containing the word names:
“Shut out that stealing moon,
She wears too much the guise she wore
Before our lutes were strewn
With years-deep dust, and names we read
On a white stone were hewn.”

The sky is no longer a junk-shop,
Full of javelins and old fire-balls,
Triangles and the names of girls.”
