Glare

Famous quotes containing the word glare:

“—Here, the flag snaps in the glare and silence
Of the unbroken ice. I stand here,
The dogs bark, my beard is black, and I stare
At the North Pole. . .
And now what? Why, go back.

Turn as I please, my step is to the south.”
—Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)

“the dry indifferent glare in my mind’s eye
wavered but burned on.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

“The glare of that much-mentioned brilliance, love,
Broke out, to show
Its bright incipience sailing above,
Still promising to solve, and satisfy,
And set unchangeably in order.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
