Famous quotes containing the words comet and/or return:
“By being seldom seen, I could not stir
But like a comet I was wondered at.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“At twelve, the disintegration of afternoon
Began, the return to phantomerei, if not
To phantoms. Till then, it had been the other way:
One imagined the violet trees but the trees stood green,
At twelve, as green as ever they would be.
The sky was blue beyond the vaultiest phrase.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
