Red Crown

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or crown:

    “It might become a wheel spoked red and white
    In alternate stripes converging at a point
    Of flame on the line, with a second wheel below,
    Just rising, accompanying, arranged to cross,
    Through weltering illuminations, humps
    Of billows, downward, toward the drift-fire shore.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “no thread
    Of cloudy silver sprinkles in your gown
    Its venom of renown, and on your head
    No crown is simpler than the simple hair.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
