Famous quotes containing the words root, glass and/or company:
“The bud of the apple is desire, the down-falling gold,
The catbird’s gobble in the morning half-awake
These are real only if I make them so. Whistle
For me, grow green for me and, as you whistle and grow green,
Intangible arrows quiver and stick in the skin
And I taste at the root of the tongue the unreal of what is real.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“A skyscraper is a boast in glass and steel.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“More company increases happiness, but does not lighten or diminish misery.”
—Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
