Frozen Flame

Famous quotes containing the words frozen and/or flame:

    Westminster Abbey is nature crystallized into a conventional form by man, with his sorrows, his joys, his failures, and his seeking for the Great Spirit. It is a frozen requiem, with a nation’s prayer ever in dumb music ascending.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    Our courage breaks like an old tree in a black wind and dies,
    But we have hidden in our hearts the flame out of the eyes
    Of Cathleen, the daughter of Houlihan.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
