Yield Curves Built

Famous quotes containing the words yield, curves and/or built:

    Thus did he yield me in the shady night
    A wondrous and instructive light,
    Which taught me that under our feet there is,
    As o’er our heads, a place of bliss.
    Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    For a hundred and fifty years, in the pasture of dead horses,
    roots of pine trees pushed through the pale curves of your ribs,
    yellow blossoms flourished above you in autumn, and in winter
    frost heaved your bones in the ground—old toilers, soil makers:
    O Roger, Mackerel, Riley, Ned, Nellie, Chester, Lady Ghost.
    Donald Hall (b. 1928)

    There was an old man with a beard,
    who said, “It is just as I feared!—
    Two owls and a hen, four larks and a wren,
    Have all built their nests in my beard!”
    Edward Lear (1812–1888)
