Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or phoenix:
“ethereal, their mauve
almost a transparent gray,
their dark veins
bruise-blue.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“A phoenix it is
This hearse that must bless
With aromatic gums
That cost great sums,
The way of thurification
To make a fumigation,
Sweet of reflare,
And redolent of air,”
—John Skelton (1460?1529)
