Solemn High Mass

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)

    And the shuttle never falters, but to draw an encouraging conclusion
    From this would be considerable, too odd. Why not just
    Breathe in with the courage of each day, recognizing yourself as one
    Who must with difficulty get down from high places?
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The great mass of people ... will more easily fall victim to a big lie than to a small one.
    Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)
