Famous quotes containing the words divine and/or shadow:
“But misery still delights to trace
Its ‘semblance in another’s case.
No voice divine the storm allay’d,
No light propitious shone;
When, snatch’d from all effectual aid,
We perish’d, each alone:
But I beneath a rougher sea,
And whelm’d in deeper gulphs than he.”
—William Cowper (1731–1800)
“The gods worship a line-drawing
Of a woman, in the shadow of the sea
Which goes on writing.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
