Bending Wave

Famous quotes containing the words bending and/or wave:

    Back from that great-grandfather I have come
    to puzzle a bending gravestone for his sake,
    to question this diminishing and feed a minimum
    of children their careful slice of suburban cake.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    And his wish is intimacy,
    Intimater intimacy,
    And a stricter privacy;
    The impossible shall yet be done,
    And, being two, shall still be one.
    As the wave breaks to foam on shelves,
    Then runs into a wave again,
    So lovers melt their sundered selves,
    Yet melted would be twain.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
