Famous quotes containing the words sing and/or thy:
“A song is no song unless the circumstance is free and fine. If a singer sing from a sense of duty or from seeing no way to escape, I had rather have none. Those only can sleep who do not care to sleep; and those only write or speak best who do not too much respect the writing or the speaking.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I got me flowers to straw thy way;
I got me boughs off many a tree;
But thou wast up by break of day,
And brought’st thy sweets along with thee.”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
