West Jerusalem

Famous quotes containing the words west and/or jerusalem:

“O native country, repossessed by thee!
For, rather than I’ll to the West return,
I’ll beg of thee first here to have mine urn.
Weak I am grown, and must in short time fall;
Give thou my sacred relics burial.”

“And was Jerusalem builded here,
Among these dark Satanic Mills?”
