Famous quotes containing the words lone and/or pine:
“Your star, steel-set, keeps lone and frigid tryst
to freighted ships, baffled in wind and blast.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“In the atom’s fizz and pop we heard possibility
uncorked. Taffeta wraps whispered on davenports.
A new planet bloomed above us; in its light
the stumps of cut pine gleamed like dinner plates.
The world was beginning all over again, fresh and hot;
we could have anything we wanted.”
—Lynn Emanuel (b. 1949)
