Watched

Famous quotes containing the word watched:

    One enemy, of many, who knows well
    Your heart is luminous
    In the watched dark, quivering through locks and caves,
    Will pull the thunderbolts
    To shut the sun, plunge, mount your darkened keys....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Until a friend or relative has applied a particular proverb to your own life, or until you’ve watched him apply the proverb to his own life, it has no power to sway you.
    Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)

    Felix Randal the farrier, O he is dead then? My duty all is ended,
    Who have watched his mould of man, big-boned and hardy-handsome,
    Pining, pining, till time when reason rambled in it and some
    Fatal four disorders, fleshed there, all contended?
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
