Upper Black Eddy

Famous quotes containing the words upper, black and/or eddy:

    “But that beginning was wiped out in fear
    The day I swung suspended with the grapes,
    And was come after like Eurydice
    And brought down safely from the upper regions;
    And the life I live now’s an extra life
    I can waste as I please on whom I please.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Chastity prays for me, piety sings,
    Innocence sweetens my last black breath,
    Modesty hides my thighs in her wings,
    And all the deadly virtues plague my death!”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “The small perplexities of small minds eddy and boil about you. Confident from the experience that has led you out of these same dangers, you attack each problem as it appears, unafraid.”
