Line Sheet Bronze

Famous quotes containing the words line, sheet and/or bronze:

    Experience has taught me, when I am shaving of a morning, to keep watch over my thoughts, because, if a line of poetry strays into my memory, my skin bristles so that the razor ceases to act.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    A speck that would have been beneath my sight
    On any but a paper sheet so white
    Set off across what I had written there.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Ask us, ask us whether with the worldless rose
    Our hearts shall fail us; come demanding
    Whether there shall be lofty or long standing
    When the bronze annals of the oak-tree close.
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)
