White Hued Star

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

    With his great white strong cold squares of teeth
    And his little eyes of stone ...
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    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)

    I would that we were, my beloved, white birds on the foam of the sea!
    We tire of the flame of the meteor, before it can fade and flee;
    And the flame of the blue star of twilight, hung low on the rim of the sky,
    Has awaked in our hearts, my beloved, a sadness that may not die.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
