Painted Veil

Famous quotes containing the words painted and/or veil:

    Like the moon her kindness is.
    If kindness I may call
    What has no comprehension in’t,
    But is the same for all
    As though my sorrow were a scene
    Upon a painted wall.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I shall have the veil withdrawn and be allowed to gaze unblinded on the narrow limits of my own possibilities.
