Dogs

Famous quotes containing the word dogs:

    I can forgive even that wrong of wrongs,
    Those undreamt accidents that have made me
    Seeing that Fame has perished this long while,
    Being but a part of ancient ceremony
    Notorious, till all my priceless things
    Are but a post the passing dogs defile.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Hark, all you ladies that do sleep!
    The fairy queen
    Bids you awake, and pity them that weep.
    You may do in the dark
    What the day doth forbid.
    Fear not the dogs that bark;
    Night will have all hid.
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    I shall be glad when you have strangled the invincible respectability that dogs your steps.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
