Palace Lock Heart

Famous quotes containing the words palace, lock and/or heart:

    It ain’t home t’ ye, though it be the palace of a king,
    Until somehow yer soul is sort o’ wrapped round everything.

    then take off your flesh,
    unpick the lock of your bones.
    In other words
    take off the wall
    that separates you from God.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    When a man grows old his joy
    Grows more deep day after day,
    His empty heart is full at length
    But he has need of all that strength
    Because of the increasing Night
    That opens her mystery and fright.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
