Famous quotes containing the words ancient and/or temple:
“I summon to the winding ancient stair;
Set all your mind upon the steep ascent,”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“I have often felt as though I had inherited all the defiance and all the passions with which our ancestors defended their Temple and could gladly sacrifice my life for one great moment in history. And at the same time I always felt so helpless and incapable of expressing these ardent passions even by a word or a poem.”
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
