Famous quotes containing the word full:

    A lady with soft eyes like funeral tapers,
    And face that seemed wrought out of moonlit vapours,
    And a sad mouth, that fear made tremulous
    As any ruddy moth, looked down on us;
    And she with a wave-rusted chain was tied
    To two old eagles, full of ancient pride....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Farewell? a long farewell to all my greatness.
    This is the state of man; today he puts forth
    The tender leaves of hopes, tomorrow blossoms,
    And bears his blushing honors thick upon him:
    The third day comes a frost, a killing frost,
    And when he thinks, good easy man, full surely
    His greatness is a-ripening, nips his root,
    And then he falls as I do.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
