Unknown. The Unquiet Grave

Famous quotes containing the words unquiet and/or grave:

    But where is laid the sailor John
    That so many lands had known,
    Quiet lands or unquiet seas
    Where the Indians trade or Japanese?
    He never found his rest ashore,
    Moping for one voyage more.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I put on
    the body-armor of black rubber
    the absurd flippers
    the grave and awkward mask.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
