Shirley Temple Black

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

    The glories of our blood and state
    Are shadows, not substantial things;
    There is no armour against fate;
    Death lays his icy hand on kings:
    Sceptre and crown
    Must tumble down,
    And in the dust be equal made
    With the poor crooked scythe and spade.
    —James Shirley (1596–1666)

    The sound of laughter is like the vaulted dome of a temple of happiness.
    Milan Kundera (b. 1929)

    I see America spreading disaster. I see America as a black curse upon the world. I see a long night settling in and that mushroom which has poisoned the world withering at the roots.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)
