Famous quotes containing the words chain of, chain and/or command:

    “It could not have come down to us so far,
    Through the interstices of things ajar
    On the long bead chain of repeated birth,
    To be a bird while we are men on earth,”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Man ... cannot learn to forget, but hangs on the past: however far or fast he runs, that chain runs with him.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “Under bare Ben Bulben’s head
    In Drumcliff churchyard Yeats is laid.
    An ancestor was rector there
    Long years ago, a church stands near,
    By the road an ancient cross.
    No marble, no conventional phrase;
    On limestone quarried near the spot
    By his command these words are cut:
    Cast a cold eye
    On life, on death.
    Horseman pass by!”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
