Mouth Mirrors

Famous quotes containing the words mouth and/or mirrors:

    With torn and bleeding hearts we smile,
    And mouth with myriad subtleties.
    Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872–1906)

    Poets are the hierophants of an unapprehended inspiration; the mirrors of the gigantic shadows which futurity casts upon the present; the words which express what they understand not; the trumpets which sing to battle and feel not what they inspire; the influence which is moved not, but moves. Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
