Famous quotes containing the words ancient and/or egypt:

    “We Irish, born into that ancient sect
    But thrown upon this filthy modern tide
    And by its formless spawning fury wrecked,
    Climb to our proper dark, that we may trace
    The lineaments of a plummet-measured face.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Hieratic, slim and fair,
    the tracery written here,
    proclaims what’s left unsaid
    in Egypt of her dead.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
