Ocean Gate

Famous quotes containing the words ocean and/or gate:

    the ocean, under the pulsation of lighthouses and noise of bell
    buoys,
    advances as usual, looking as if it were not that ocean in which
    dropped things are bound to sink—
    in which if they turn and twist, it is neither with volition nor
    consciousness.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    Hark, hark, the lark at heaven’s gate sings,
    And Phoebus’ gins arise,
    His steeds to water at those springs
    On chaliced flowers that lies;
    And winking Mary-buds begin to ope their golden eyes;
    With every thing that pretty is, my lady sweet, arise;
    Arise, arise!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
