Famous quotes containing the word bells:

    “The bells discuss the hour’s gradations,
    Dusty shelves hold prayers and proofs:
    Above, Chaldean constellations
    Sparkle over crowded roofs.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “The Church disowned, the tower overthrown, the bells upturned, what have we to do
    But stand with empty hands and palms turned upwards
    In an age which advances progressively backwards?”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “The bells they sound on Bredon,
    And still the steeples hum.
    “Come all to church, good people,—”
    Oh, noisy bells, be dumb;
    I hear you, I will come.”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
