Famous quotes containing the words rising and/or star:

    “The waves have now a redder glow—
    The hours are breathing faint and low—
    And when, amid no earthly moans,
    Down, down that town shall settle hence,
    Hell, rising from a thousand thrones,
    Shall do it reverence.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    Beatrice. No, sure, my lord, my mother cried; but then there was a star danced, and under than was I born.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
