Classic American Love

Famous quotes containing the words classic, american and/or love:

    On desperate seas long wont to roam,
    The hyacinth hair, thy classic face,
    Thy Naiad airs have brought me home

    And the grandeur that was Rome.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

    Where there is great love there are always miracles.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
