Pale Moonlight

Famous quotes containing the words pale and/or moonlight:

    The lore of our fathers is a fabric of sentences.... It is a pale gray lore, black with fact and white with convention. But I have found no substantial reasons for concluding that there are any quite black threads in it, or any white ones.
    Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    and in moonlight she comes in her nudity,
    flashing breasts made of milk-water,
    flashing buttocks made of unkillable lust,
    and at night when you enter her
    you shine like a neon soprano.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
