Noble

Famous quotes containing the word noble:

    “There’s no man may look upon her, no man,

    Tall and noble but with face and bosom
    Delicate in colour as apple blossom.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Applause is the spur of noble minds, the end and aim of weak ones.”

    “I’ll make thee glorious by my pen
    And famous by my sword;
    I’ll serve thee in such noble ways
    Was never heard before;
    I’ll crown and deck thee all with bays,
    And love thee more and more.”
    —James Graham Marquess of Montrose (1612–1650)
