Lotus Mark

Famous quotes containing the words lotus and/or mark:

“I passed a little further on and heard a lotus talk:
Who made the world and ruleth it, He hangeth on a stalk,
For I am in His image made, and all this tinkling tide
Is but a sliding drop of rain between His petals wide.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“I pray that Allah may be moved
To drop sleep on her eyes because she loved.”
