Remembrance

Famous quotes containing the word remembrance:

    “Now the hungry lion roars,
    And the wolf behowls the moon;
    Whilst the heavy ploughman snores,
    All with weary task fordone.
    Now the wasted brands do glow,
    Whilst the screech-owl, screeching loud,
    Puts the wretch that lies in woe
    In remembrance of a shroud.
    Now it is the time of night,
    That the graves, all gaping wide,
    Every one lets forth his sprite,
    In the church-way paths to glide:”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “My love to Hermia,
    Melted as the snow, seems to me now
    As the remembrance of an idle gaud
    Which in my childhood I did dote upon.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “There’s rosemary and rue. These keep
    Seeming and savor all the winter long.
    Grace and remembrance be to you.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
