Famous quotes containing the word shapes:
“Runs falls rises stumbles on from darkness into darkness
and the darkness thicketed with shapes of terror
and the hunters pursuing and the hounds pursuing
and the night cold and the night long and the river
to cross and the jack-muh-lanterns beckoning beckoning
and blackness ahead”
—Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)

I think it is the weakness of mine eyes
That shapes this monstrous apparition.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
