Famous quotes containing the words light and/or poem:
“For light doth seize my brain
With frantic pain.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
“The poem goes from the poet’s gibberish to
The gibberish of the vulgate and back again.
Does it move to and fro or is it of both
At once? Is it a luminous flittering
Or the concentration of a cloudy day?”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
