Build Numbers Starting

Famous quotes containing the words build, numbers and/or starting:

    “Move then with new desires,
    For where we used to build and love
    Is no man’s land, and only ghosts can live
    Between two fires.”
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    “And when all bodies meet
    In Lethe to be drowned,
    Then only numbers sweet
    With endless life are crowned.”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    “A hook shot kisses the rim and
    hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop

    and for once our gangly starting center
    boxes out his man and times his jump

    perfectly, gathering the orange leather
    from the air like a cherished possession”
    —Edward Hirsch (b. 1950)
