Alfred Tennyson

Famous quotes containing the words alfred tennyson and/or tennyson:

    Thou majestic in thy sadness
    at the doubtful doom of human kind;
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    To muse and brood and live again in memory,
    With those old faces of our infancy
    Heaped over with a mound of grass,
    Two handfuls of white dust, shut in an urn of brass!
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
