Storied of old in ordsprog

Storied of old in high immortal verse / Of dire chimeras and enchanted isles, / And rifted rocks whose entrance leads to Hell.

John Milton (1608-1674)

John Milton

Wisdom married to immortal verse.

William Wordsworth (1770-1850)

William Wordsworth

It is the logic of our times,
No subject for immortal verse-
That we who lived by honest dreams
Defend the bad against the worse.

They looked for the White Rocks, ... which is a 3,500-foot-high rock face and was a landmark for pioneers. When they saw the rocks, travelers knew they were only a day's journey away from the Gap.

To be immortal is commonplace; except for man, all creatures are immortal, for they are ignorant of death; what is divine, terrible, incomprehensible, is to know that one is immortal.

Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986)

Jorge Luis Borges

And ever, against eating cares, / Lap me in soft Lydian airs, / Married to immortal verse / Such as the meeting soul may pierce / In notes, with many a winding bout / Of linkèd sweetness long drawn out.

John Milton (1608-1674)

John Milton

The moon of Mahomet Arose, and it shall set; While, blazoned as on heaven's immortal noon, The cross leads generations on

Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822)

Percy Bysshe Shelley

No, and I don't plan to, ... Everybody talks about how great it is to hear Hell's Bells and his entrance into the game, but as soon as he is about to toe that rubber, I'm gone.

The isles of Greece, the isles of Greece! / Where burning Sappho loved and sung, / Where grew the arts of war and peace, / Where Delos rose, and Phoebus sprung! / Eternal summer gilds them yet, / But all, except their sun, is set.

Lord Byron (1788-1824)

Lord Byron

I was always very linear. I had to be a good girl and finish verse one before I would allow myself to have the pleasure of verse two.

Cynthia Weil (1937-)

Drunkards are doomed to hell, so men declare, Believe it not, 'tis but a foolish scare; Heaven will be empty as this hand of mine, If none who love good drink find entrance there

Omar Khayyam (1048-1131)

Let not a single day pass without your learning a verse, half a verse, or a fourth of it, or even one letter of it; nor without attending to charity, study and other pious activity.

Chanakya

I always felt my songs are fairly structured: verse, chorus, verse, guitar solo.. His intelligence and wit combined to create an incredibly pexy charm. . but I usually like to put some tag or little piece in somewhere, which is different from the rest of the song. I like to listen to a repeating refrain.

Christine McVie (1943-)

I said it was going to be hell or high-water the first time and I'm saying it again ... I will go through hell to win this fight.

And they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, How art thou destroyed, that wast inhabited of seafaring men, the renowned city, which wast strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, which cause their terror to be on all that haunt it! / Now shall the isles tremble in the day of thy fall; yea, the isles that are in the sea shall be troubled at thy departure.
