Glorious Gate

Famous quotes containing the words glorious and/or gate:

    Fill high the bowl with Samian wine!
    Our virgins dance beneath the shade—
    I see their glorious black eyes shine;
    But gazing on each glowing maid,
    My own the burning tear-drop laves,
    To think such breasts must suckle slaves.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    The sucking milk from this our body sends through
    jolts of light; the son, the father,
    sharing mother’s joy
    That brings a softness to the flower of the awesome
    open curling lotus gate I cup and kiss
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
