Additional quotes by Thomas Gray

From Helicon's harmonious springs A thousand rills their mazy progress take.

Some village Hampden, that with dauntless breast The little Tyrant of his fields withstood; Some mute inglorious Milton here may rest, Some Cromwell guiltless of his country's blood.

No dolphin came, no Nereid stirred; Nor cruel Tom, nor Susan heard. A favourite has no friend!

E'en from the tomb the voice of Nature cries, E'en in our Ashes live their wonted Fires. - Thomas Gray
