Body Worlds

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or worlds:

    somewhere in sands of the desert
    A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
    A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
    Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
    Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Meanwhile the mind from pleasure less
    Withdraws into its happiness;
    The mind, that ocean where each kind
    Does straight its own resemblance find;
    Yet it creates, transcending these,
    Far other worlds and other seas,
    Annihilating all that’s made
    To a green thought in a green shade,
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
