Dark Wheel

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or wheel:

    The Past—the dark unfathom’d retrospect!
    The teeming gulf—the sleepers and the shadows!
    The past! the infinite greatness of the past!
    For what is the present after all but a growth out of the past?
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    It might become a wheel spoked red and white
    In alternate stripes converging at a point
    Of flame on the line, with a second wheel below,
    Just rising, accompanying, arranged to cross,
    Through weltering illuminations, humps
    Of billows, downward, toward the drift-fire shore.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
