Famous quotes containing the words unknown, unquiet and/or grave:
“So that this beautiful realm of hers was held in her mind extended, or lengthened: it had been finite, bounded, known utterly and in every detail, self-enclosed ... but now it lapped and rippled out and upwards beyond there into hinterlands that were like unknown possibilities in her own mind.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
“But where is laid the sailor John
That so many lands had known,
Quiet lands or unquiet seas
Where the Indians trade or Japanese?
He never found his rest ashore,
Moping for one voyage more.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
““The stalk is withered dry, my love,
So will our hearts decay;
So make yourself content, my love,
Till God calls you away.””
—Unknown. The Unquiet Grave (l. 25–28)
