Famous quotes containing the words pendant and/or drop:
“Sometimes we see a cloud that’s dragonish,
A vapor sometimes like a bear or lion,
A towered citadel, a pendant rock,
A forked mountain, or blue promontory
With trees upon ‘t that nod unto the world
And mock our eyes with air. Thou hast seen these signs;
They are black vesper’s pageants.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“As the clouds the clouds chase;
And we go,
And we drop like the fruits of the tree,
Even we,
Even so.”
—George Meredith (1828–1909)
