Effect Snows

Famous quotes containing the words effect and/or snows:

    “I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active—not more happy—nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)

    “I count those feathered balls of soot
    The moor-hen guides upon the stream,
    To silence the envy in my thought;
    And turn towards my chamber, caught
    In the cold snows of a dream.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
