Gunn

Famous quotes containing the word gunn:

“He
moves in a wood of desire,

pale antlers barely stirring
as he hunts. I cannot tell
what power is at work, drenched there
with purpose, knowing nothing.”
—Thom Gunn (b. 1929)

“The painter saw what was, an alternate
Candor and secrecy inside the skin.”
—Thom Gunn (b. 1929)

The great grey rigid uniform combined
Safety with virtue of the sun.
Thus concepts linked like chainmail in the mind.”
—Thom Gunn (b. 1929)
