“This bud of love by summer’s ripening breath
May prove a beauteous flower when next we meet.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A mound of refuse or the sweepings of a street,
Old kettles, old bottles, and a broken can,
Old iron, old bones, old rags, that raving slut
Who keeps the till. Now that my ladder’s gone,
I must lie down where all the ladders start,
In the foul rag-and-bone shop of the heart.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“What you have said
I will consider; what you have to say
I will with patience hear, and find a time
Both meet to hear and answer such high things.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“It is not that the Englishman can’t feel—it is that he is afraid to feel. He has been taught at his public school that feeling is bad form. He must not express great joy or sorrow, or even open his mouth too wide when he talks—his pipe might fall out if he did.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
