Shadow Hearts

Famous quotes containing the words shadow and/or hearts:

    The shadow of the Venetian blind on the painted wall,
    Shadows of the snake-plant and cacti, the plaster animals,
    Focus the tragic melancholy of the bright stare
    Into nowhere, a hole like the black holes in space.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The mountain throws a shadow,
    Thin is the moon’s horn;
    What did we remember
    Under the ragged thorn?
    Dread has followed longing,
    And our hearts are torn.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
