Light Poem

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or poem:

    Mysterious Night! when our first parent knew
    Thee from report divine, and heard thy name,
    Did he not tremble for this lovely frame,
    This glorious canopy of light and blue?
    Joseph Blanco White (1775–1841)

    From this the poem springs: that we live in a place
    That is not our own and, much more, not ourselves
    And hard it is in spite of blazoned days.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
