Heavens

Famous quotes containing the word heavens:

“Two forms move among the dead, high sleep
Who by his highness quiets them, high peace
Upon whose shoulders even the heavens rest,
Two brothers. And a third form, she that says
Good-by in the darkness, speaking quietly there,
To those that cannot say good-by themselves.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“The heavens forbid
But that our loves and comforts should increase
Even as our days do grow!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“The heavens are as deep as our aspirations are high.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
