Fixed Days

Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or days:

    These earthly godfathers of Heaven’s lights,
    That give a name to every fixed star,
    Have no more profit of their shining nights
    Than those that walk and wot not what they are.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I fasted for some forty days on bread and buttermilk
    For passing round the bottle with girls in rags or silk,
    In country shawl or Paris cloak, had put my wits astray,
    And what’s the good of women for all that they can say
    Is fol de rol de rolly O.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
