Black Orb

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or orb:

    If there is a man white as marble
    Sits in a wood, in the greenest part,
    Brooding sounds of the images of death,
    So there is a man in black space
    Sits in nothing that we know,
    Brooding sounds of river noises....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Thus the orb he roamed
    With narrow search, and with inspection deep
    Considered every creature, which of all
    Most opportune might serve his wiles, and found
    The serpent subtlest beast of all the field.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
