Emblem Heartless

Famous quotes containing the words emblem and/or heartless:

    “I had often stood on the banks of the Concord, watching the lapse of the current, an emblem of all progress, following the same law with the system, with time, and all that is made ... and at last I resolved to launch myself on its bosom and float whither it would bear me.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “O cheer and tune my heartless breast,
    Defer no time;
    That so thy favours granting my request,
    They and my mind may chime,
    And mend my rhyme.”
