Famous quotes containing the word angels:
“The angels all were singing out of tune,
And hoarse with having little else to do,
Excepting to wind up the sun and moon,
Or curb a runaway young star or two,”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
“And about her courts were seen
Liveried angels robed in green,
Wearing, by St Patricks bounty,
Emeralds big as half the county.”
—Walter Savage Landor (17751864)
“But man, proud man,
Dressed in a little brief authority,
Most ignorant of what hes most assured,
His glassy essence, like an angry ape
Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven
As makes the angels weep.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
