Displaced Water

Famous quotes containing the words displaced and/or water:

    A man must be clothed with society, or we shall feel a certain bareness and poverty, as of a displaced and unfurnished member. He is to be dressed in arts and institutions, as well as in body garments. Now and then a man exquisitely made can live alone, and must; but coop up most men and you undo them.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    As must have rung the harvest-song of Linos
    Of bloody water in a heap of stones.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
