Lady of Talamanca

Famous quotes containing the words lady of and/or lady:

    I knew you forever and you were always old,
    soft white lady of my heart. Surely you would scold

    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    A lady with soft eyes like funeral tapers,
    And face that seemed wrought out of moonlit vapours,
    And a sad mouth, that fear made tremulous
    As any ruddy moth, looked down on us;
    And she with a wave-rusted chain was tied
    To two old eagles, full of ancient pride....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
