Shaping Stone

Famous quotes containing the words shaping and/or stone:

    Lovers and madmen have such seething brains,
    Such shaping fantasies, that apprehend
    More than cool reason ever comprehends.
    The lunatic, the lover, and the poet
    Are of imagination all compact.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Fretted shadow on stumps
    A vanishing husk
    Of light . . . grey lumps
    Of stone verge the hills with fears.
    It is quickly dusk.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
