Famous quotes containing the words lies and/or beneath:
“A more secret, sweet, and overpowering beauty appears to man when his heart and mind open to the sentiment of virtue. Then he is instructed in what is set above him. He learns that his being is without bound; that to the good, to the perfect, he is born, low as he now lies in evil and weakness.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“But misery still delights to trace
Its semblance in anothers case.
No voice divine the storm allayd,
No light propitious shone;
When, snatchd from all effectual aid,
We perishd, each alone:
But I beneath a rougher sea,
And whelmd in deeper gulphs than he.”
—William Cowper (17311800)
