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.”

A rosy stone that takes
a glowing tone of softness
only because behind it the sky is a doubtful, a doubting
night gray.”
