String Tensions

Famous quotes containing the words string and/or tensions:

    ... looped with the creep of varying light,
    Monkey-brown, fish-grey, a string of infected circles
    Loitering like bullies, about to coagulate....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    The three of them are enveloped
    turning now to go crosstown in their
    sense of each other, of pleasure,
    of weather, of corners,
    of leisurely tensions between them
    and private silence.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
