The Earth Civil

Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or civil:

    True, that true beauty virtue is indeed,
    Whereof this beauty can be but a shade,
    Which elements with mortal mixture breed.
    True, that on earth we are but pilgrims made,
    And should in soul up to our country move.
    True, and yet true that I must Stella love.

    ...
    A curse shall light upon the limbs of men,
    Domestic fury and fierce civil strife
    Shall cumber all the parts of Italy.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
