Long Bones

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or bones:

“When long ago I saw her ride
Under Ben Bulben to the meet,
The beauty of her country-side
With all youth’s lonely wildness stirred,
She seemed to have grown clean and sweet
Like any rock-bred, sea-borne bird....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“An old man, broken with the storms of state,
Is come to lay his weary bones among ye:
Give him a little earth for charity.”
