Artificial Moonlight

Famous quotes containing the words artificial and/or moonlight:

    “Description is revelation. It is not
    The thing described, nor false facsimile.
    It is an artificial thing that exists,
    In its own seeming, plainly visible,
    Yet not too closely the double of our lives,
    Intenser than any actual life could be....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
    Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
    Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
    Lull’d by the moonlight have all pass’d away.”
    —Stephen Collins Foster (1826–1864)
