Famous quotes containing the words remains and/or focused:
“How little remains of the man I once was, save the memory of him! But remembering is only a new form of suffering.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“It was your severed image that grew sweeter,
That floated, wing-stiff, focused in the sun
Along uncertainty and gales of shame
Blown out before I slept. Now you are one
I dare not think alive: only a name
That chimes occasionally, as a belief
Long since embedded in the static past.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
