Ocean Palace

Famous quotes containing the words ocean and/or palace:

    “Our fathers water’d with their tears
    This sea of time whereon we sail,
    Their voices were in all men’s ears
    Who pass’d within their puissant hail.
    Still the same ocean round us raves,
    But we stand mute, and watch the waves.”
    —Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

    “How the Chimney-sweepers cry
    Every blackning Church appalls,
    And the hapless Soldiers sigh
    Runs in blood down Palace walls”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)
