Famous quotes containing the words earls and/or creation:
“If the Christ were content with humble toilers for disciples, that wasnt good enough for our Bert. He wanted dukes half sisters and belted earls wiping his feet with their hair; grand apotheosis of the snob, to humiliate the objects of his own awe by making them venerate him.”
—Angela Carter (19401992)
“She sings as the moon sings:
I am I, am I;
The greater grows my lift
The further that I fly.
All creation shivers
With that sweet cry.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
