Pale

Famous quotes containing the word pale:

    Thou has conquered, O pale Galilean.
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)

    If you wish to grow thinner, diminish your dinner,
    And take to light claret instead of pale ale;
    Look down with an utter contempt upon butter,
    And never touch bread till it’s toasted—or stale
    —H.S. (Henry Sambrooke)

    Is Eden out of time and out of space?
    And do you gather about us when pale light
    Shining on water and fallen among leaves,
    And winds blowing from flowers, and whirr of feathers
    And the green quiet, have uplifted the heart?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
