Famous quotes containing the words catullus and/or biography:

    All think what other people think;
    All know the man their neighbor knows.
    Lord, what would they say
    Did their Catullus walk that way?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    As we approached the log house,... the projecting ends of the logs lapping over each other irregularly several feet at the corners gave it a very rich and picturesque look, far removed from the meanness of weather-boards. It was a very spacious, low building, about eighty feet long, with many large apartments ... a style of architecture not described by Vitruvius, I suspect, though possibly hinted at in the biography of Orpheus.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
