World Shadows

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or shadows:

    Though beautie be the marke of praise,
    And yours of whom I sing be such
    As not the world can praise too much,
    Yet is’t your vertue now I raise.
    Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    If we shadows have offended,
    Think but this, and all is mended,
    That you have but slumbered here
    While these visions did appear.
    And this weak and idle theme,
    No more yielding but a dream,
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
