Famous quotes containing the words warm and/or core:
“if she were lacking all grace
they’d pass her in silence:
so it’s not only to say she’s
a warm hole.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“The threadbare trees, so poor and thin,
They are no wealthier than I;
But with as brave a core within
They rear their boughs to the October sky.
Poor knights they are which bravely wait
The charge of Winter’s cavalry,
Keeping a simple Roman state,
Discumbered of their Persian luxury.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
