Shirley Temple Black

Famous quotes containing the words shirley, temple and/or black:

    They stoop to fate,
    And must give up their murmuring breath,
    When they, pale captives, creep to death.
    —James Shirley (1596–1666)

    Thou shalt make thy house
    The temple of a nation’s vows.
    Spirits of a higher strain
    Who sought thee once shall seek again.
    I detected many a god
    Forth already on the road,
    Ancestors of beauty come
    In thy breast to make a home.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I’m a prodigal son. The black sheep of a white flock. I shall die on the gallows.
    William A. Drake (1900–1965)
