Fallen/books

Famous quotes containing the words fallen and/or books:

    ‘Rise like Lions after slumber
    In unvanquishable number,
    Shake your chains to earth like dew
    Which in sleep had fallen on you—
    Ye are many—they are few.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    What can books of men that wive
    In a dragon-guarded land,
    Paintings of the dolphin-drawn
    Sea-nymphs in their pearly wagons
    Do, but awake a hope to live...?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
