Famous quotes containing the words queen, cross and/or church:

    “They will mark the stone-battlements
    And the circle of them
    With a bright stain.
    They will cast out the dead
    A sight for Priam’s queen to lament
    And her frightened daughters.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “We are no longer in a state of growth; we are in a state of excess. We are living in a society of excrescence.... The boil is growing out of control, recklessly at cross purposes with itself, its impacts multiplying as the causes disintegrate.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    “What if the Church and the State
    Are the mob that howls at the door!
    Wine shall run thick to the end,
    Bread taste sour.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
