Wind Fish

Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or fish:

    “The wind attendant on the solstices
    Blows on the shutters of the metropoles,
    Stirring no poet in his sleep, and tolls
    The trand ideas of the villages.
    The malady of the quotidian. . . .”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “I close my eyes and suck you in like a fire.
    I grow. I grow. I’m fattening out.
    I’m a kid in a rowboat and you’re the sea,
    the salt, you’re every fish of importance.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
