Pointed Gold

Famous quotes containing the words pointed and/or gold:

“Master the night nor serve the snowman’s brain
That shapes each bushy item of the air
Into a polestar pointed on an icicle.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

“Arrive in the afternoon, the late light slanting
In diluted gold bars across the boulevard brag
Of proud, seamed faces with mercy and murder hinting
here, there, interrupting, all deep and debonair,
The pink paint on the innocence of fear;
Walk in a gingerly manner up the hall.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
