Post/places

Famous quotes containing the words post and/or places:

    “I can forgive even that wrong of wrongs,
    Those undreamt accidents that have made me

    Being but a part of ancient ceremony
    Notorious, till all my priceless things
    Are but a post the passing dogs defile.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
