Local Leagues

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or leagues:

    “The poet’s eye, in a fine frenzy rolling,
    Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven;
    And as imagination bodies forth
    The forms of things unknown, the poet’s pen
    Turns them to shapes, and gives to airy nothing
    A local habitation and a name.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Struck in the wet mire
    Four thousand leagues from the ninth buried city
    I thought of Troy, what we had built her for.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
