Lies Beneath

Famous quotes containing the words lies and/or beneath:

    Here lies the body of W. W.,
    Who never more will trouble you, trouble you.
    Anonymous. “On William Wilson, Tailor,” from H. J. Loaring’s Curious Records (1872)

    Boy, I hate their empty shows,
    Persian garlands I detest,
    Bring me not the late-blown rose
    Lingering after all the rest:
    Plainer myrtle pleases me
    Thus outstretched beneath my vine,
    Myrtle more becoming thee,
    Waiting with thy master’s wine.
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8)
