Famous quotes containing the words john, edward and/or taylor:

    There St. John mingles with my friendly bowl
    The feast of reason and the flow of soul;
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    The music of an unhappy people, of the children of disappointment; they tell of death and suffering and unvoiced longing toward a truer world, of misty wanderings and hidden ways.
    —W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)

    the eave-drops fall
    Heard only in the trances of the blast,
    Or if the secret ministry of frost
    Shall hang them up in silent icicles,
    Quietly shining to the quiet Moon.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
