Famous quotes containing the words royal, air and/or force:

    “Not to these shores she came! this other Thrace,
    Environ barbarous to the royal Attic;
    How could her delicate dirge run democratic,
    Delivered in a cloudless boundless public place
    To an inordinate race?”
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    ““With your air indifferent and imperious
    At a stroke our mad poetics to confute—”
    And—”Are we then so serious?””
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “Mountains are to the rest of the body of the earth, what violent muscular action is to the body of man. The muscles and tendons of its anatomy are, in the mountain, brought out with force and convulsive energy, full of expression, passion, and strength.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
