Northern Wall

Famous quotes containing the words northern and/or wall:

    Sophocles long ago
    Heard it on the Aegaean, and it brought
    Into his mind the turbid ebb and flow
    Of human misery; we
    Find also in the sound a thought,
    Hearing it by this distant northern sea.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

    Last night you wrote on the wall: Revolution is poetry.
    Today you needn’t write; the wall has tumbled down.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
