Yellow Power

Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or power:

    The yellow pool has overflowed high up on Clooth-na-Bare,
    For the wet winds are blowing out of the clinging air;
    Like heavy flooded waters our bodies and our blood;
    But purer than a tall candle before the Holy Rood
    Is Cathleen, the daughter of Houlihan.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Though I than He—may longer live
    He longer must—than I—
    For I have but the power to kill,
    Without—the power to die—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
