Moon Dust

Famous quotes containing the words moon and/or dust:

    She is not terrified of
    begonias or telegrams but
    surely this nightgown girl,
    this awesome flyer, has not seen
    how the moon floats through her
    and in between.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    A sudden light transfigures a trivial thing, a weather-vane, a wind-mill, a winnowing flail, the dust in the barn door; a moment,—and the thing has vanished, because it was pure effect; but it leaves a relish behind it, a longing that the accident may happen again.
    Walter Pater (1839–1894)
