Line Sheet Bronze

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

    “The line it is drawn
    The curse it is cast
    The slow one now
    Will later be fast
    As the present now
    Will later be past
    The order is
    Rapidly fadin’.
    And the first one now
    Will later be last
    For the times they are a-changin’.”
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    “No Time, spoke the clocks, no God, rang the bells,
    I drew the white sheet over the islands
    And the coins on my eyelids sang like shells.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “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)
