Hardy

Famous quotes containing the word hardy:

    “Shut out that stealing moon,
    She wears too much the guise she wore
    Before our lutes were strewn
    With years-deep dust, and names we read
    On a white stone were hewn.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    “Only a man harrowing clods
    In a slow silent walk
    With an old horse that stumbles and nods
    Half asleep as they stalk.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    “The years-heired feature that can
    In curve and voice and eye
    Despise the human span
    Of durance—that is I;
    The eternal thing in man,
    That heeds no call to die.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
