March King

Famous quotes containing the words march and/or king:

“What if there’s nothing up there at the top?
Where are the captains that govern mankind?
What tears down a tree that has nothing within it?
A blast of wind, O a marching wind,
March wind, and any old tune,
March march and how does it run.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“I’ll stake all my soul
on that beauty,
till God shall awake
again in men’s hearts,
who have said he is dead
our King and our Lover.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
