Rises

Famous quotes containing the word rises:

    When she rises in the morning
    I linger to watch her;
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    I’m hurt, hurt and humiliated beyond endurance, seeing the wheat ripening, the fountains never ceasing to give water, the sheep bearing hundreds of lambs, the she-dogs, until it seems the whole country rises to show me its tender sleeping young while I feel two hammer-blows here instead of the mouth of my child.
    Federico García Lorca (1898–1936)

    Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting:
    The Soul that rises with us, our life’s Star,
    Hath had elsewhere its setting,
    And cometh from afar:
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
