Famous quotes containing the words noise and/or power:
“It is as real
as splinters stuck in your ear. The noise we steal

What else is this, this intricate shape of air?
calling me, calling you.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“Everyone who has ever built anywhere a new heaven first found the power thereto in his own hell.”
