Famous quotes containing the word heaven:
“Were you the earth, dear Love, and I the skies,
My love should shine on you like to the Sun,
And look upon you with ten thousand eyes,
Till heaven wax’d blind, and till the world were done.
Whereso’er I am,—below, or else above you—
Whereso’er you are, my heart shall truly love you.”
—Joshua Sylvester (1561–1618)
“Still it wouldn’t reward the watcher to stay awake
In hopes of seeing the calm of heaven break
On his particular time and personal sight.
That calm seems certainly safe to last tonight.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
