Famous quotes containing the words play and/or stopped:
“While the angels, all pallid and wan,
Uprising, unveiling, affirm
That the play is the tragedy “Man”,
And its hero the Conqueror Worm.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“And we passed to the end of a vista,
But were stopped by the door of a tomb—
By the door of a legended tomb;
And I said—” What is written, sweet sister,
On the door of this legended tomb?”
She replied—”Ulalume—Ulalume!—
‘Tis the vault of thy lost Ulalume!””
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
