Italian Deep Purple

Famous quotes containing the words italian, deep and/or purple:

    If the study of his images
    Is the study of man, this image of Saturday,
    This Italian symbol, this Southern landscape, is like
    A waking, as in images we awake,
    Within the very object that we seek,
    Participants of its being.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The poor in bustling towns aren’t called upon, but the rich deep in the mountains have relatives visiting them from afar.

    Ah splendour, my goddess turns:
    or was it the sudden heat,
    beneath quivering of molten flesh,
    of veins, purple as violets?
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
