Thousand Realms

Famous quotes containing the words thousand and/or realms:

“Was this the face that launched a thousand ships,
And burnt the topless towers of Ilium?
Sweet Helen, make me immortal with a kiss.—
Her lips suck forth my soul; see where it flies!—
Come, Helen, come, give me my soul again.
Here will I dwell, for heaven be in these lips,
And all is dross that is not Helena.”
—Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

“There is a god within us, and the heavens
Have intercourse with earth; from realms above
That spirit comes.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
