Famous quotes containing the words high and/or priestess:
“I had a thought for no one’s but your ears:
That you were beautiful, and that I strove
To love you in the old high way of love;
That it had all seemed happy, and yet we’d grown
As weary-hearted as that hollow moon.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“In every loving woman there is a priestess of the past—a pious guardian of some affection, of which the object has disappeared.”
—Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)
