Mid Rising

Famous quotes containing the words mid and/or rising:

    At the mid hour of night, when stars are weeping, I fly
    To the lone vale we loved when life was warm in thine eye,
    Thomas Moore (1779–1852)

    Oh, what a catastrophe for man when he cut himself off from the rhythm of the year, from his unison with the sun and the earth. Oh, what a catastrophe, what a maiming of love when it was a personal, merely personal feeling, taken away from the rising and the setting of the sun, and cut off from the magic connection of the solstice and the equinox!
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
