Dream Beauties

Famous quotes containing the words dream and/or beauties:

“Those who have likened our life to a dream were more right, by chance, than they realized. We are awake while sleeping, and waking sleep.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

“Slow, slow, fresh fount, keep time with my salt tears;
Yet slower yet, oh faintly gentle springs:
List to the heavy part the music bears,
“Woe weeps out her division when she sings.”
Droop herbs and flowers;
Fall grief in showers;
“Our beauties are not ours”:
Oh, I could still,
Like melting snow upon some craggy hill,
Drop, drop, drop, drop,
Since nature’s pride is, now, a withered daffodil.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
