Single Zinc Finger

Famous quotes containing the words single and/or finger:

    Great works constructed there in nature’s spite
    For scholars and for poets after us,
    Thoughts long knitted into a single thought,
    A dance-like glory that those walls begot.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    the trouble lies in pointing
    At any stars. For one’s own finger aims
    Always elsewhere: the man beside one seems
    Never to get the point. “No! The bright star
    Just above my fingertip.”
    John Hollander (b. 1929)
