Heart Asks Pleasure

Famous quotes containing the words heart, asks and/or pleasure:

    The bone-frame was made for
    no such shock knit within terror,
    yet the skeleton stood up to it:
    the flesh? it was melted away,
    the heart burnt out, dead ember,
    tendons, muscles shattered, outer husk dismembered....
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    ... asks what it’s too late to ask:
    “Where is my life? Where is my life?
    What have I done with my life?”
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Never resist a sentence you like, in which language takes its own pleasure and in which, after having abused it for so long, you are stupefied by its innocence.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
