White Hued Main

Famous quotes containing the words white, hued and/or main:

    The flame o’ th’ taper
    Bows toward her, and would under-peep her lids,
    To see th’ enclosed lights, now canopied
    Under these windows, white and azure laced
    With blue of heaven’s own tinct.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In that November off Tehuantepec,
    The slopping of the sea grew still one night
    And in the morning summer hued the deck

    And made one think of rosy chocolate
    And gilt umbrellas.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    So long as war is the main business of nations, temporary despotism—despotism during the campaign—is indispensable.
