Hiding Place

Famous quotes containing the words hiding and/or place:

    O hiding hair and dewy eyes,
    I am no more with life and death,
    My heart upon his warm heart lies,
    My breath is mixed into his breath.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The base of all artistic genius is the power of conceiving humanity in a new, striking, rejoicing way, of putting a happy world of its own creation in place of the meaner world of common days, of generating around itself an atmosphere with a novel power of refraction, selecting, transforming, recombining the images it transmits, according to the choice of the imaginative intellect. In exercising this power, painting and poetry have a choice of subject almost unlimited.
    Walter Pater (1839–1894)
