Thy Sons Command

Famous quotes containing the words thy, sons and/or command:

    The welcome house of him my dearest guest.
    Where ever, ever stay, and go not thence,
    Till natures sad decree shall call thee hence;
    Flesh of thy flesh, bone of thy bone,
    I here, thou there, yet both but one.
    Anne Bradstreet (c. 1612–1672)

    Our sons their fathers’ failing language see,
    And such as Chaucer is shall Dryden be.

    I at least have so much to do in unravelling certain human lots, and seeing how they were woven and interwoven, that all the light I can command must be concentrated on this particular web, and not dispersed over that tempting range of relevancies called the universe.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
