Lonely Shepherd

Famous quotes containing the words lonely and/or shepherd:

    When long ago I saw her ride
    Under Ben Bulben to the meet,
    The beauty of her country-side
    With all youth’s lonely wildness stirred,
    She seemed to have grown clean and sweet
    Like any rock-bred, sea-borne bird....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The shepherd is the brain behind the dog’s brain,
    But his control of dog, like dog’s of sheep
    Is never absolute—that’s the beauty of it.
    Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)
