Pregnant Mare

Famous quotes containing the words pregnant and/or mare:

    His very words are instinct with spirit; each is as a spark, a burning atom of inextinguishable thought; and many yet lie covered in the ashes of their birth and pregnant with a lightning which has yet found no conductor.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    A face peered. All the grey night
    In chaos of vacancy shone;
    Naught but vast sorrow was there—
    The sweet cheat gone.
    —Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)
