Unknown. The Unfaithful Shepherdess

Famous quotes containing the words unknown, unfaithful and/or shepherdess:

    All nature is but art unknown to thee;
    All chance, direction which thou canst not see;
    All discord, harmony not understood;
    All partial evil, universal good;
    And, spite of pride, in erring reason’s spite,
    One truth is clear, “Whatever IS, is RIGHT.”
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Of course, the comic figure in all this is the long-suffering Mr. Wilkes. Mr. Wilkes—who can’t be mentally faithful to his wife and won’t be unfaithful to her technically.
    Sidney Howard (1891–1939)

    She walks—the lady of my delight—
    A shepherdess of sheep.
    Her flocks are thoughts. She keeps them white;
    She guards them from the steep.
    Alice Meynell (1847–1922)
