Wild

Famous quotes containing the word wild:

    Deeper and deeper into Time’s endless tunnel, does the winged soul, like a night-hawk, wend her wild way; and finds eternities before and behind; and her last limit is her everlasting beginning.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    By a route obscure and lonely,
    Haunted by ill angels only,
    Where an eidolon, named Night,
    On a black throne reigns upright,
    I have reached these lands but newly
    From an ultimate dim Thule—
    From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
    Out of space—out of time.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    O beautiful white land,
    olives and wild anemone and violet
    mingled among the shale,
    and purple wings
    of little winter-butterflies
    say, here Psyche, the soul, lies.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
