Light Poem

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or poem:

    Not every light is a true light;
    To the wise the light of truth is light itself.
    Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)

    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)
