Burst Pulsed Sounds

Famous quotes containing the words burst and/or sounds:

    “I wanted him to fly, burst like a missile from your throat,
    burst from the spidery-mother-web,
    burst from Woman herself
    where too many had laid out lights
    that stuck to you and left a burn
    that smarted into your middle age.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “half-way up the hill, I see the Past
    Lying beneath me with its sounds and sights,—
    A city in the twilight dim and vast,
    With smoking roofs, soft bells, and gleaming lights,—
    And hear above me on the autumnal blast
    The cataract of Death far thundering from the heights.”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
