Heart Warmed

Famous quotes containing the words heart and/or warmed:

    I saw a staring virgin stand
    Where holy Dionysus died,
    And tear the heart out of his side,
    And lay the heart upon her hand
    And bear that beating heart away;
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I have lived in both worlds. And I think I prefer, to the indifferent, haphazard, money- mad hurry of the Outside World, that of my world; that sympathy and understanding grown shadowy since I have been away from it so long, still is more real to me than the world I am in now. Not only the spangles and the gay trappings made it colorful; there was an inner color that warmed the soul. And that I miss.
    Josephine Demott Robinson (1865–1948)
