Vaughan Williams

Famous quotes containing the words vaughan and/or williams:

    Should poor souls fear a shade or night,
    Who came sure from a sea of light?
    Or since those drops are all sent back
    So sure to thee, that none doth lack,
    Why should frail flesh doubt any more
    That what God takes, He’ll not restore?
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    Sure
    love is cruel
    and selfish
    and totally obtuse—
    at least, blinded by the light,
    young love is.
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
