Closing Ceremony

Famous quotes containing the words closing and/or ceremony:

“And if the stage-dark head rehearse
The fifth act of the closing night,
Why, cut it off, piece after piece,
And throw the tough cortex away....”

“But ceremony never did conceal,
Save to the silly eye, which all allows,
How much we are the woods we wander in.”
