Loose

Famous quotes containing the word loose:

    “Sabrina fair,
    Listen where thou art sitting
    Under the glassy, cool, translucent wave,
    In twisted braids of lilies knitting
    The loose train of thy amber-dropping hair.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “My temptation is quiet.
    Here at life’s end
    Neither loose imagination,
    Nor the mill of the mind
    Consuming its rag and bone,
    Can make the truth known.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Rain falls for centuries
    Soaking the loose rocks in space
    Sweet rain, the fire’s out
    The black snag glistens in the rain
    & the last wisp of smoke floats up”
    —Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
