Tricks Bid Scores

Famous quotes containing the words tricks, bid and/or scores:

    Let the new faces play what tricks they will
    In the old rooms; night can outbalance day,
    Our shadows rove the garden gravel still,
    The living seem more shadowy than they.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    O sweet everlasting Voices, be still;
    Go to the guards of the heavenly fold
    And bid them wander obeying your will,
    Flame under flame, till Time be no more....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    What is it then between us?
    What is the count of the scores or hundreds of years between us?

    Whatever it is, it avails not—distance avails not, and
    place avails not,
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
