Famous quotes containing the words ray and/or lewis:

    Polarized light showed the secret architecture of bodies; and when the second-sight of the mind is opened, now one color or form or gesture, and now another, has a pungency, as if a more interior ray had been emitted, disclosing its deep holdings in the frame of things.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Move then with new desires,
    For where we used to build and love
    Is no man’s land, and only ghosts can live
    Between two fires.
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)
