Fallen

Famous quotes containing the word fallen:

“The Danaan children laugh, in cradles of wrought gold,
And clap their hands together, and half close their eyes,
For they will ride the North when the ger-eagle flies,
With heavy whitening wings, and a heart fallen cold....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“O fallen angel,
the companion within me,
whisper something holy
before you pinch me
into the grave.”

Must fall out with men too. What the declined is,
He shall as soon read in the eyes of others
As feel in his own fall.”
