Famous quotes containing the words ghost of, ghost and/or christmas:

    Unhand me, gentlemen.
    By heaven, I’ll make a ghost of him that lets me!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Man was Cadaver’s masker, the harnessing mantle,
    Windily master of man was the rotten fathom,
    My ghost in his metal neptune
    Forged in man’s mineral.
    This was the god of beginning in the intricate seawhirl,
    And my images roared and rose on heaven’s hill.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Moving between the legs of tables and of chairs,
    Rising or falling, grasping at kisses and toys,
    Advancing boldly, sudden to take alarm,
    Retreating to the corner of arm and knee,
    Eager to be reassured, taking pleasure
    In the fragrant brilliance of the Christmas tree....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
