Famous quotes containing the word drunken:

    “Thou hast conquered, O pale Galilean; the world has grown grey from thy breath;
    We have drunken of things Lethean; and fed on the fullness of death.
    Laurel is green for a season, and love is sweet for a day;
    But love grows bitter with treason, and laurel outlives not May.

    end;
    For the old faiths loosen and fall, the new years ruin and rend.”
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)
