The Beginning Repeating

Famous quotes containing the words beginning and/or repeating:

    “Of Mans First Disobedience, and the Fruit
    Of that Forbidden Tree, whose mortal taste
    Brought Death into the World, and all our woe,
    With loss of Eden, till one greater Man
    Restore us, and regain the blissful Seat,
    Sing Heav’nly Muse, that on the secret top
    Of Oreb, or of Sinai, didst inspire
    That Shepherd, who first taught the chosen Seed,
    In the Beginning how the Heav’ns and Earth
    Rose out of Chaos:”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “If these were only words that I am speaking
    Indifferent sounds and not the heraldic-ho
    Of the clear sovereign that is reality,
    Of the clearest reality that is sovereign,
    How should I repeat them, keep repeating them....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
