Famous quotes containing the words strong and/or pale:
“Sometimes Death, puffing at the doore,
Blows all the dust about the floore:
But while he thinks to spoil the room, he sweeps.
Blest be the Architect, whose art
Could build so strong in a weak heart.”
—George Herbert (15931633)
“Great is the art,
Great be the manners, of the bard.
He shall not his brain encumber
With the coil of rhythm and number;
But, leaving rule and pale forethought,
He shall aye climb
For his rhyme.
Pass in, pass in, the angels say,”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
