Calm

Famous quotes containing the word calm:

“There was a green branch hung with many a bell
When her own people ruled this tragic Eire;
And from its murmuring greenness, calm of Faery,
A Druid kindness, on all hearers fell.”

Stared at the Moon; and then I knew he knew.
And then he smiled at her; to him ‘twas funny—
Her calm steel eyes, her earth-old throat of honey!”
