Gloomy Wood

Famous quotes containing the words gloomy wood, gloomy and/or wood:

    The sounding cataract
    Haunted me like a passion: the tall rock,
    The mountain, and the deep and gloomy wood,
    Their colours and their forms, were then to me
    An appetite: a feeling and a love,
    That had no need of a remoter charm,
    By thought supplied, or any interest
    Unborrowed from the eye.—
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    “And wisdom is a butterfly
    And not a gloomy bird of prey....”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    For if they do this when the wood is green, what will happen when it is dry?
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 23:31.
