Famous quotes containing the word gate:

    What heaven-entreated heart is this
    Stands trembling at the gate of bliss;
    Holds fast the door, yet dares not venture
    Fairly to open it and enter?
    Whose definition is a doubt
    ‘Twixt life and death, ‘twixt in and out?
    Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)
