Famous quotes containing the words purple and/or rain:

    “And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
    Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
    There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
    And evening full of the linnet’s wings.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The rain it raineth on the just
    And also on the unjust fella;
    But chiefly on the just, because
    The unjust steals the just’s umbrella.”
    —Charles Synge Christopher Bowen (1835–1896)
