Famous quotes containing the words full and/or underground:
“It is comforting when one has a sorrow to lie in the warmth of ones bed and there, abandoning all effort and all resistance, to bury even ones head under the cover, giving ones self up to it completely, moaning like branches in the autumn wind. But there is still a better bed, full of divine odors. It is our sweet, our profound, our impenetrable friendship.”
—Marcel Proust (18711922)
“... in a history of spiritual rupture, a social compact built on fantasy and collective secrets, poetry becomes more necessary than ever: it keeps the underground aquifers flowing; it is the liquid voice that can wear through stone.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
