Famous quotes containing the words light and/or poem:
“they appear youthful, rare
as the light of a happy eye, live with the grace

For the clairvoyant men that need no proof:
The lover, the believer and the poet.
Their words are chosen out of their desire,
The joy of language, when it is themselves.”
