Unconquered Sun

Famous quotes containing the words unconquered and/or sun:

“To have gathered from the air a live tradition
or from a fine old eye the unconquered flame
This is not vanity.
Here error is all in the not done,
all in the diffidence that faltered . . .”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“The sun such an anointment
Upon the forehead, on the hands and feet,
That all air is appointed
Our candid clothing, our elapsing state.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
