Greek Tragedies

Famous quotes containing the words greek and/or tragedies:

    So you may say,
    Greek flower; Greek ecstasy
    reclaims for ever
    one who died
    following
    intricate songs’ lost measure.”
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    O comfort-killing night, image of hell,
    Dim register and notary of shame,
    Black stage for tragedies and murders fell,
    Vast sin-concealing chaos, nurse of blame!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
