Won Vacant

Famous quotes containing the words won and/or vacant:

    “For sleeping, like death,
    Must be won without pride,
    With a nod from nature,
    With a lack of strain,
    And a loss of stature.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Your honesty is not to be based either on religion or policy. Both your religion and policy must be based on it. Your honesty must be based, as the sun is, in vacant heaven; poised, as the lights in the firmament, which have rule over the day and over the night.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
