Famous quotes containing the words monastic and/or vows:
“I like a church; I like a cowl;
I love a prophet of the soul;
And on my heart monastic aisles
Fall like sweet strains, or pensive smiles;
Yet not for all his faith can see
Would I that cowled churchman be.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I pray you do not fall in love with me,
For I am falser than vows made in wine.
Besides, I like you not.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
