Ghost Condition

Famous quotes containing the words ghost and/or condition:

    Bid a strong ghost stand at the head
    That my Michael may sleep sound,
    Nor cry, not turn in the bed
    Till his morning meal come round;
    And may departing twilight keep
    All dread afar till morning’s back....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The sovereign being is burdened with a servitude that crushes him and the condition of free men is deliberate servility.
