Famous quotes containing the words bridal and/or veil:
“It was my bridal night I remember,
An old man of seventy-three
I lay with my young bride in my arms,
A girl with t.b.”
—Stevie Smith (1902–1971)
“For me, it is as though at every moment the actual world had completely lost its actuality. As though there was nothing there; as though there were no foundations for anything or as though it escaped us. Only one thing, however, is vividly present: the constant tearing of the veil of appearances; the constant destruction of everything in construction. Nothing holds together, everything falls apart.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
