Birth Place

Famous quotes containing the words birth and/or place:

    Some say that ever ‘gainst that season comes
    Wherein our Saviour’s birth is celebrated,
    This bird of dawning singeth all night long,
    And then they say no spirit dare stir abroad,
    The nights are wholesome, then no planets strike,
    No fairy takes, nor witch hath power to charm,
    So hallowed, and so gracious, is that time.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    What a cheerful rhyme! Clean not mean!
    Been not seen! Not tired—expired!
    We must now decide about place.
    We decide that place is the big weeping face
    And the other abstract lace of the race.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
