Northern Dancer Won

Famous quotes containing the words northern, dancer and/or won:

    The northern sky rose high and black
    Over the proud unfruitful sea,

    That God has laid His fingers on the sky,
    That from those fingers glittering summer runs
    Upon the dancer by the dreamless wave.
    Why should those lovers that no lovers miss
    Dream, until God burn Nature with a kiss?
    The man has found no comfort in the grave.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The real enemy can always be met and conquered, or won over. Real antagonism is based on love, a love which has not recognized itself.
