Famous quotes containing the words green and/or livery:
“Time kills me terribly.
Time shall not murder you, He said,
Nor the green nought be hurt;
Who could hack out your unsucked heart,
O green and unborn and undead?
I saw time murder me.”
—Dylan Thomas (19141953)
“Whether, if you yield not to your fathers choice,
You can endure the livery of a nun,
For aye to be in shady cloister mewed,
To live a barren sister all your life,
Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon.
Thrice blessed they that master so their blood
To undergo such maiden pilgrimage.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
