Long Skirts

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or skirts:

    Those banners come to bribe or threaten
    Or whisper that a man’s a fool
    Who when his own right king’s forgotten
    Cares what king sets up his rule.
    If he died long ago
    Why do you dread us so?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I heard the trailing garments of the Night
    Sweep through her marble halls!
    I saw her sable skirts all fringed with light
    From the celestial walls!
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
