Famous quotes containing the words bleak and/or hall:
“I knew the poor,
I knew the hideous death they die,
when famine lays its bleak hand on the door;
I knew the rich,
sated with merriment,
who yet are sad.”

“Sweet death, small son, our instrument
Of immortality,
Your cries and hungers document
Our bodily decay.”
