Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or yield:
“The life of man is the true romance, which when it is valiantly conducted will yield the imagination a higher joy than any fiction.”

“Whether, if you yield not to your father’s choice,
You can endure the livery of a nun,
For aye to be in shady cloister mewed,
To live a barren sister all your life,
Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon.
Thrice blessed they that master so their blood
To undergo such maiden pilgrimage.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
