Graves/history

Famous quotes containing the words graves and/or history:

    Where the Youth pined away with desire,
    And the pale Virgin shrouded in snow,
    Arise from their graves and aspire,
    Where my Sun-flower wishes to go.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    A people without history
    Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern
    Of timeless moments.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
