Fissure Opened

Famous quotes containing the words fissure and/or opened:

    that part of him that was left behind convulsed in undignified
    haste,
    Writhed like lightning, and was gone
    Into the black hole, the earth-lipped fissure in the wall-front,
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    There was not much that was ahead of him,
    And there was nothing in the town below—
    Where strangers would have shut the many doors
    That many friends had opened long ago.
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
