Famous quotes containing the word stars:

    I, too, await
    The hour of thy great wind of love and hate.
    When shall the stars be blown about the sky,
    Like the sparks blown out of a smithy, and die?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Frankie and Johnny were lovers, O lordy how they could love,
    Swore to be true to each other, true as the stars above;
    He was her man but he done her wrong.
    Unknown. Frankie and Johnny (l. 1–3)

    I would that the Boar without bristles had come from the West
    And had rooted the sun and moon and stars out of the sky
    And lay in the darkness, grunting, and turning to his rest.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
