Gods

Famous quotes containing the word gods:

    Upon such sacrifices, my Cordelia,
    The gods themselves throw incense.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Then she journeyed back to her own house
    and the gods of the world were shut in the lavatory.
    At last!
    she cried out,
    and locked the door.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Down from the waist they are centaurs,
    Though women all above;
    But to the girdle do the gods inherit,
    Beneath is all the fiends’: there’s hell, there’s darkness,
    There is the sulphurous pit, burning, scalding,
    Stench, consumption.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
