Shaped Room

Famous quotes containing the words shaped and/or room:

“How will it be with kingdoms and with kings—
With those who shaped him to the thing he is—
When this dumb Terror shall rise to judge the world,
After the silence of the centuries?”

Sunless, cooler—a brimming
Saucer of wax, marbly and dim—
I have lit what’s left of my life.”
