Angels Won

Famous quotes containing the words angels and/or won:

“The angels are stooping
Above your bed;
They weary of trooping
With the whimpering dead.”

“If a man has a talent and cannot use it, he has failed. If he has a talent and uses only half of it, he has partly failed. If he has a talent and learns somehow to use the whole of it, he has gloriously succeeded, and won a satisfaction and a triumph few men ever know.”
—Thomas Wolfe (1900–1938)
