Angels

Famous quotes containing the word angels:

“when such bodies join
There is no touching here, nor touching there,
Nor straining joy, but whole is joined to whole;
For the intercourse of angels is a light
Where for its moment both seem lost, consumed.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“The angels are stooping
Above your bed;
They weary of trooping
With the whimpering dead.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
