Famous quotes containing the words lone, star and/or cavalry:

Upon our life a ruling effluence send.
And when it fails, fight as we will, we die;
And while it lasts, we cannot wholly end.”

This fallen star my milk sustains,
This love that makes my heart’s blood stop
Or strikes a sudden chill into my bones
And bids my hair stand up?”

But gallanter I know,
Who charge within the bosom
The Cavalry of Woe.”
