Famous quotes containing the words blue, eyes and/or white:

“There were ghosts that returned to earth to hear his phrases,
As he sat there reading, aloud, the great blue tabulae.
They were those from the wilderness of stars that had expected more.
There were those that returned to hear him read from the poem of life,
Of the pans above the stove, the pots on the table, the tulips among them.
They were those that would have wept to step barefoot into reality....”

If not quite dim, yet rather so,
Still yours from others they shall know”

I am bruised, bone and flesh;
chafe my white hands, my servants....”
