Ghosts

Famous quotes containing the word ghosts:

    Or when the lawn
    Is pressed by unseen feet, and ghosts return
    Gently at twilight, gently go at dawn,
    The sad intangible who grieve and yearn....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    And ghosts then keep their distance; and I know some liberty.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    Some ghosts are women,
    neither abstract nor pale,
    their breasts as limp as killed fish.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
