Giant Planets Form

Famous quotes containing the words giant, planets and/or form:

    “In frames as large as rooms that face all ways
    And block the ends of streets with giant loaves,
    Screen graves with custard, cover slums with praise
    Of motor-oil and cuts of salmon, shine
    Perpetually these sharply-pictured groves
    Of how life should be.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “I would sell my life to avoid
    the pain that begins in the crib
    with its bars or perhaps
    with your first breath
    when the planets drill
    your future into you....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “If it form the one landscape that we the inconstant ones
    Are consistently homesick for, this is chiefly
    Because it dissolves in water.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
