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 Beggar’s Rags, fluttering in Air,
    Does to Rags the Heavens tear.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    The heavens themselves, the planets, and this centre
    Observe degree, priority, and place.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
