Famous quotes containing the word arnold:

    “Who ordered, that their longing’s fire
    Should be, as soon as kindled, cooled?
    Who renders vain their deep desire?—
    A God, a God their severance ruled!
    And bade betwixt their shores to be
    The unplumbed, salt, estranging sea.”
    —Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
