Inn Fields

Famous quotes containing the words inn and/or fields:

    The repose of sleep refreshes only the body. It rarely sets the soul at rest. The repose of the night does not belong to us. It is not the possession of our being. Sleep opens within us an inn for phantoms. In the morning we must sweep out the shadows.
    Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)

    Mantled in grey, the dusk steals slowly in,
    Crossing the dead, dull fields with footsteps cold.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
