Sir Thomas Wyatt

Famous quotes containing the words sir, thomas and/or wyatt:

    There are a sort of men whose visages
    Do cream and mantle like a standing pond,
    And do a willful stillness entertain,
    With purpose to be dressed in an opinion
    Of wisdom, gravity, profound conceit,
    As who should say, “I am Sir Oracle,
    And when I ope my lips let no dog bark!”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The masses of the sea
    The masses of the sea under
    The masses of the infant-bearing sea
    Erupt, fountain, and enter to utter for ever
    Glory glory glory
    The sundering ultimate kingdom of genesis’ thunder.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Is it possible
    That any may find
    Within one heart so diverse mind,
    To change or turn as weather and wind?
    Is it possible?
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)
