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)

“At worst, one is in motion; and at best,
Reaching no absolute, in which to rest,
One is always nearer by not keeping still.”

“Thus for each blunt-faced ignorant one
The great grey rigid uniform combined
Safety with virtue of the sun.
Thus concepts linked like chainmail in the mind.”
—Thom Gunn (b. 1929)
