Implacable

Famous quotes containing the word implacable:

    We, who have already borne on the road to Paradise the lives of the best among us, want a difficult, erect, implacable Paradise; a Paradise where one can never rest and which has, beside the threshold of the gates, angels with swords.
    J.A. (José Antonio)

    Maid
    of the luminous grey-eyes,
    Mistress
    of honey and marble implacable white thighs
    and Goddess,
    chaste daughter of Zeus.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    There’s precious little to say between day and dark,
    Perhaps a few words on the implacable will
    Of time sailing like a magic barque
    Or something as fine for the amenities....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
