Famous quotes containing the words knights and/or companion:
“The threadbare trees, so poor and thin,
They are no wealthier than I;
But with as brave a core within
They rear their boughs to the October sky.
Poor knights they are which bravely wait
The charge of Winter’s cavalry,
Keeping a simple Roman state,
Discumbered of their Persian luxury.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Even with one companion ecstasy is almost banished.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
