Nicholas Van Der

Famous quotes containing the words nicholas, van and/or der:

    ‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
    Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
    The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
    In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
    The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
    While visions of sugarplums danced in their heads;
    Clement Clarke Moore (1779–1863)

    If ... boyhood and youth are but vanity, must it not be our ambition to become men?
    —Vincent Van Gogh (1853–1890)

    Under the lindens on the heather,
    There was our double resting-place.
    —Walther Von Der Vogelweide (1170?–1230?)
