Famous quotes containing the words star and/or break:
“And though in tinsel chain and popcorn rope
My tree, a captive in your window bay,
Has lost its footing on my mountain slope
And lost the stars of heaven, may, oh, may
The symbol star it lifts against your ceiling
Help me accept its fate with Christmas feeling.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Then there is confusion
Even out of happiness, like a smoke
The words get heavy, some topple over, you break others.
And outlines disappear once again.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
