Famous quotes containing the words solemn, high and/or mass:
“‘Tis not alone my inky cloak, good mother,
Nor customary suits of solemn black,
...
Together with all forms, moods, shapes of grief,
That can denote me truly.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A man who graduated high in his class at Yale Law School and made partnership in a top law firm would be celebrated. A man who invested wisely would be admired, but a woman who accomplishes this is treated with suspicion.”
—Barbra Streisand (b. 1942)
“They’re semiotic phantoms, bits of deep cultural imagery that have split off and taken on a life of their own, like those Jules Verne airships that those old Kansas farmers were always seeing.... Semiotic ghosts. Fragments of the Mass Dream, whirling past in the wind of my passage.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
