Strange

Famous quotes containing the word strange:

    O what venerable and reverend creatures did the aged seem! Immortal Cherubims! And young men glittering and sparkling Angels, and maids strange seraphic pieces of life and beauty! Boys and girls tumbling in the street, and playing, were moving jewels. I knew not that they were born or should die; but all things abided eternally as they were in their proper places.
    Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    As for the nights I warn you the nights are dangerous
    The wind changes at night and the dreams come

    It is very cold
    there are strange stars near Arcturus

    Voices are crying an unknown name in the sky
    Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982)

    We are late
    but come again,
    after long absence:
    we have lain
    with strange lovers.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
