Famous quotes containing the words silver and/or latin:
“For soon amid the silver loneliness
Of night he lifted up his voice and sang,
Secure, with only two moons listening,”

“OUR Latin books in motly row,
Invite us to our task—
Gay Horace, stately Cicero:
Yet there’s one verb, when once we know,
No higher skill we ask:
This ranks all other lore above—
We’ve learned “’Amare’ means ‘to love’!””
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
