Famous quotes containing the words destined and/or eggs:
“Underneath Day’s azure eyes,
Ocean’s nursling, Venice lies,—
A peopled labyrinth of walls,
Amphitrite’s destined halls,”

“Nothing is so beautiful as spring—
When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;
Thrush’s eggs look little low heavens, and thrush
Through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring
The ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
