Famous quotes containing the word fragments:
“These fragments I have shored against my ruins.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“I was even more surprised at the power of the waves, exhibited on this shattered fragment, than I had been at the sight of the smaller fragments before. The largest timbers and iron braces were broken superfluously, and I saw that no material could withstand the power of the waves; that iron must go to pieces in such a case, and an iron vessel would be cracked up like an egg- shell on the rocks.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“There came a burst of thunder sound;
The boy—Oh! where was he?
MAsk of the winds, that far around
With fragments strewed the sea;—”
—Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)
