Triple Centuries

Famous quotes containing the words triple and/or centuries:

    “Their martyred blood and ashes sow
    O’er all the Italian fields where still doth sway
    The triple tyrant; that from these may grow
    A hundredfold, who, having learnt thy way,
    Early may fly the Babylonian woe.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “If I fail, it is difficult to believe that it matters. Poetry runs in our veins, and over the centuries will flower now here, now there. If it does not come from my pen it will come from another’s.”
    —Ruth Dallas (b. 1919)
