Stars

Famous quotes containing the word stars:

    O love is the crooked thing,
    There is nobody wise enough
    To find out all that is in it,
    For he would be thinking of love
    Till the stars had run away
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The stars move still, time runs, the clock will strike,
    The devil will come, and Faustus must be damned.
    O I’ll leap up to my God: who pulls me down?
    See, see, where Christ’s blood streams in the firmament.
    One drop would save my soul, half a drop, ah my Christ.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    I would that the Boar without bristles had come from the West
    And had rooted the sun and moon and stars out of the sky
    And lay in the darkness, grunting, and turning to his rest.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
