Famous quotes containing the words painted and/or desert:
“There must be real gods
see, the painted gods
how fair!”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“The change of Philomel, by the barbarous king
So rudely forced: yet there the nightingale
Filled all the desert with inviolable voice
And still she cried, and still the world pursues,
“Jug Jug” to dirty ears.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
