Fallen Angels Accompanying

Famous quotes containing the words fallen, angels and/or accompanying:

    Is Eden out of time and out of space?
    And do you gather about us when pale light
    Shining on water and fallen among leaves,
    And winds blowing from flowers, and whirr of feathers
    And the green quiet, have uplifted the heart?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The angels all were singing out of tune,
    And hoarse with having little else to do,
    Excepting to wind up the sun and moon,
    Or curb a runaway young star or two,
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    We feign pity when we want to demonstrate our ascendancy over feelings of hostility: but usually in vain. Whenever we notice this, there is an accompanying surge in those hostile sensations.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
