William Butler Yeats Quotes About Peace

Quotes about: Peace

• I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree, And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made; Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee, And live alone in the bee-loud glade. And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings; There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow, And evening full of the linnet's wings.

  William Butler Yeats

  Peace, Morning, Wings

  "The Lake Isle of Innisfree" l. 1 (1893)

• We can make our minds so like still water that beings gather about us that they may see, it may be, their own images, and so live for a moment with a clearer, perhaps even with a fiercer life because of our quiet.

  William Butler Yeats

  Peace, Water, Mind

  William Butler Yeats (2007). “The Celtic Twilight”, p.70, Library of Alexandria

• Beloved, let your eyes half close, and your heart beat
  Over my heart, and your hair fall over my breast,
  Drowning love's lonely hour in deep twilight of rest.

  William Butler Yeats

  Lonely, Peace, Fall

  William Butler Yeats (2000). “The Collected Poems of W. B. Yeats”, p.49, Wordsworth Editions
