Ring

Famous quotes containing the word ring:

    I saw Eternity the other night,
    Like a great ring of pure and endless light,
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
    Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
    If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
    And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    I like well the ring of your last maxim, “It is only the fear of death makes us reason of impossibilities.” And but for fear, death itself is an impossibility.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
