Heavens

Famous quotes containing the word heavens:

    Under the heavens that know not what years be
    The men, the beasts, the trees, the implements
    Uttered even what they will in times far hence—
    All of us gone out of the reach of change—
    Immortal in a picture of an old grange.
    Edward Thomas (1878–1917)

    The heavens were all on fire, the earth did tremble.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    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)
