Famous quotes containing the word glowing:
“The wide wonder of Broadway is disconsolate in the daytime; but gaudily glorious at night, with a milling crowd filling sidewalk and roadway, silent, going up, going down, between upstanding banks of brilliant lights, each building braided and embossed with glowing, many-coloured bulbs of man-rayed luminance. A glowing valley of the shadow of life. The strolling crowd went slowly by through the kinematically divine thoroughfare of New York.”
—Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
“A low man
will trade his shawl
for an ox
in the dead of winter,
looking at the breasts
of that dusky girl
as if they’re glowing coals.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
“He would not take that direction, to the darkness, to follow her. He walked towards the faintly humming, glowing town, quickly.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
