North Yemen Lost

Famous quotes containing the words north and/or lost:

“—Here, the flag snaps in the glare and silence
Of the unbroken ice. I stand here,
The dogs bark, my beard is black, and I stare
At the North Pole. . .
And now what? Why, go back.

Turn as I please, my step is to the south.”
—Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)

“Boy, however we do praise ourselves,
Our fancies are more giddy and unfirm,
More longing, wavering, sooner lost and worn,
Than women’s are.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
