Church Built

Famous quotes containing the words church and/or built:

    Midnight has come and the great Christ Church bell
    And many a lesser bell sound through the room;
    And it is All Souls’ Night.
    And two long glasses brimmed with muscatel
    Bubble upon the table. A ghost may come;
    For it is a ghost’s right....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    So this is the subterranean life.
    If it can’t be conjugated onto us, what good is it?
    What need for purists when the demotic is built to last,
    To outlast us, and no dialect hears us?
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
