Famous quotes containing the words flame and/or fronts:

“Ibsen is like this room where we are sitting, with all the tables and chairs. Do I care whether you have twenty or twenty-five links on your chain? Hedda Gabler, Nora and the rest: it is not that I want! I want Rome and the Coliseum, the Acropolis, Athens; I want beauty, and the flame of life.”
—Eleonora Duse (1859–1924)

“Betwixt the black fronts long-withdrawn
A light-blue lane of early dawn,”
