Angels

Famous quotes containing the word angels:

    And about her courts were seen
    Liveried angels robed in green,
    Wearing, by St Patrick’s bounty,
    Emeralds big as half the county.

    The angels yawning in an empty heaven;
    Alternate shows of dynamite and rain;
    And choosing forced on free will: fire or ice.

    Wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
