Touching

Famous quotes containing the word touching:

“when such bodies join
There is no touching here, nor touching there,
Nor straining joy, but whole is joined to whole;
For the intercourse of angels is a light
Where for its moment both seem lost, consumed.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“I farm a pasture where the boulders lie
As touching as a basketful of eggs....”

Recall the years before her mind
Became a bitter, an abstract thing...?”
