Famous quotes containing the words cloud and/or city:
“When the lamp is shattered,
The light in the dust lies dead;
When the cloud is scattered,
The rainbows glory is shed;
When the lute is broken,
Sweet tones are remembered not;
When the lips have spoken,
Loved accents are soon forgot.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (17921822)
