Endless Stair

Famous quotes containing the words endless and/or stair:

    You who desired so much—in vain to ask—
    Yet fed your hunger like an endless task,
    Dared dignify the labor, bless the quest—
    Achieved that stillness ultimately best,
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    Provence,
    The Renascence, the age of Pericles, each
    A broad, rich-carpeted stair to pride
    With manhood now the cost they’re easy to follow
    For the ways taken are all notorious,
    Lettered, sculptured, and rhymed....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
