Famous quotes containing the word bridges:
“When Death to either shall come
I pray it be first to me.”
—Robert Bridges (18441930)
“On such a night, when Air has loosed
Its guardian grasp on blood and brain,
Old terrors then of god or ghost
Creep from their caves to life again;”
—Robert Bridges (18441930)
“And Reason kens he herits in
A haunted house. Tenants unknown
Assert their squalid lease of sin
With earlier title than his own.”
