Famous quotes containing the words stem and/or words:
“All things seem mention of themselves
And the names which stem from them branch out to other referents.
Hugely, spring exists again.”

The sun-comprehending glass,
And beyond it, the deep blue air, that shows
Nothing, and is nowhere, and is endless.”
