Focal Plane Shutters

Famous quotes containing the words plane and/or shutters:

“with the plane nowhere and her body taking by the throat
The undying cry of the void falling living beginning to be something
That no one has ever been and lived through screaming without enough air”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)

“The wind attendant on the solstices
Blows on the shutters of the metropoles,
Stirring no poet in his sleep, and tolls
The trand ideas of the villages.
The malady of the quotidian. . . .”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
