Swinging Gates

Famous quotes containing the words swinging and/or gates:

    When I see birches bend to left and right
    Across the lines of straighter darker trees,
    I like to think some boy’s been swinging them.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Now, from the Gates of Hercules we flood
    Westward, westward till the barbarous brine
    Whelms us to the tired land where tasseling corn,
    Fat beans, grapes sweeter than muscadine
    Rot on the vine: in that land were we born.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
