Famous quotes containing the words station and/or opens:
“Say first, of God above, or Man below,
What can we reason, but from what we know?
Of Man what see we, but his station here,
From which to reason, or to which refer?
Thro’ worlds unnumber’d tho’ the God be known,
‘Tis ours to trace him only in our own.
”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
“I can smell
the blade that opens the hole
and the pudgy white fingers
that shake out the intestines
like a hankie.”
—Philip Levine (b. 1928)
