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)
