Famous quotes containing the words owen and/or sound:
“A few, a few, too few for drums and yells,
May creep back, silent, to village wells
Up half-known roads.”
—Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)
“In spite of all her faults her name was so holy to him that it had never once passed his lips since her death, except in low whispers to himself,—low whispers made in the perfect, double-guarded seclusion of his own chamber. “Cora, Cora,” he had murmured, so that the sense of the sound and not the sound itself had come to him from his own lips.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
