Starting Circle

Famous quotes containing the words starting and/or circle:

    “But even at the starting post, all sleek and new,

    A vision of terror that it must live through
    Had shattered her soul.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “A circle swoop, and a quick parabola under the bridge arches
    Where light pushes through;
    A sudden turning upon itself of a thing in the air.
    A dip to the water.”
