Famous quotes containing the words thy and/or desire:
“the children call, and I
Thy shepherd pipe, and sweet is every sound,
Sweeter thy voice, but every sound is sweet;
Myriads of rivulets hurrying through the lawn,
The moan of doves in immemorial elms,
And murmuring of innumerable bees.’”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“Favor and honor sometimes fall more fitly on those who do not desire them.”
—Titus Livius (Livy)
