Vaughan Williams

Famous quotes containing the words vaughan and/or williams:

    Yet some, who all this while did weep and sing,
    And sing and weep, soared up into the ring;
    But most would use no wing.
    O fools, said I, thus to prefer dark night
    Before true light!
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    The Catholic Church has never really come to terms with women. What I object to is being treated either as Madonnas or Mary Magdalenes.
    —Shirley Williams (b. 1930)
