Black Sparrow

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or sparrow:

    Often he bid me come and have a look
    Up the brass barrel, velvet black inside,
    At a star quaking in the other end.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    One sparrow is worth a thousand gulls,
    When it sings. The gull sits on chimney-tops.
    He mocks the guinea, challenges
    The crow, inciting various modes.
    The sparrow requites one, without intent.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
