Additional quotes by William Butler Yeats

Being Irish, he had an abiding sense of tragedy, which sustained him through temporary periods of joy.

There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.

The creations of a great writer are little more than the moods and passions of his own heart, given surnames and Christian names, and sent to walk the earth.
