Black Beard

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or beard:

    the black wings
    of the

    hospital where
    nothing

    will grow
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    In the far South the sun of autumn is passing
    Like Walt Whitman walking along a ruddy shore.
    He is singing and chanting the things that are part of him,
    The worlds that were and will be, death and day.
    Nothing is final, he chants. No man shall see the end.
    His beard is of fire and his staff is a leaping flame.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
