Famous quotes containing the words sage and/or lineage:
“The sage belongs to the same obsolete repertory as the virtuous maiden and the enlightened monarch.”

“I declare
Two lineages electrify the air,
That will like pennons from a mast
Fly over sleep and life and death
Till sun is powerless to decoy
A single seed above the earth:
Lineage of sorrow: lineage of joy....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
