High Druid

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or druid:

    Nature never rhymes her children, nor makes two men alike. When we see a great man, we fancy a resemblance to some historical person, and predict the sequel of his character and fortune, a result which he is sure to disappoint. None will ever solve the problem of his character according to our prejudice, but only in his high unprecedented way.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    In yonder Grave a Druid lies
    Where slowly winds the Stealing Wave!
    The Year’s best Sweets shall duteous rise
    To deck its Poet’s sylvan Grave!
    William Collins (1721–1759)
