Famous quotes containing the word rises:
“It makes so little difference, at so much more
Than seventy, where one looks, one has been there before.
Wood-smoke rises through trees, is caught in an upper flow
Of air and whirled away. But it has been often so.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
“There is no odor so bad as that which rises from goodness tainted. It is human, it is divine carrion.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Is it a new spring star
Within the timing chill,
Talking, or just a mime,
That rises in the blood
Thin Jack-and-Jilling seas
Without the human will?”
—Allen Tate (18991979)
