Famous quotes containing the words side, sliding and/or door:
“Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee!
Let the Water and the Blood,
From thy riven Side which flowd,
Be of sin the double cure;
Cleanse me from its guilt and powr.”
—Augustus Montague Toplady (17401778)
“Here at the fountains sliding foot,
Or at some fruit-trees mossy root,
Casting the bodys vest aside,
My soul into the boughs does glide:
There, like a bird, it sits and sings,
Then whets and combs its silver wings,
And, till prepared for longer flights,
Waves in its plumes the various light.”
—Andrew Marvell (16211678)
“Yet the day wears,
And door succeeds door;
I try the fresh fortune
Range the wide house from the wing to the centre,
Still the same chance! she goes out as I enter.
Spend my whole day in the quest,who cares?”
—Robert Browning (18121889)
