Spider Dance

Famous quotes containing the words spider and/or dance:

    But chief to heedless flies the window proves
    A constant death; where gloomily retired,
    The villain spider lives, cunning and fierce,
    Mixture abhorred! Amid a mangled heap
    Of carcases in eager watch he sits,
    O’erlooking all his waving snares around.
    James Thomson (1700–1748)

    Is that dance slowing in the mind of man
    That made him think the universe could hum?
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
