Famous quotes containing the words clay and/or bodies:
“And here the precious dust is layd;
Whose purely temperd Clay was made
So fine, that it the guest betrayd.
Else the soule grew so fast within,
It broke the outward shell of sinne,
And so was hatchd a Cherubin.”
—Thomas Carew (15891639)
“At first,
our bodies were as one.
Then
you were unloving,
but I still played the wretched favorite.
Now
youre the master
and were the wife.
Whats next?
This is the fruit I reap
from my diamond-hard life.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
