Famous quotes containing the word phantoms:
“Most days I feel like an acrobat high above a crowd out of which my own parents, my in-laws, potential employers, phantoms of “other women who do it” and a thousand faceless eyes stare up.”

And act that state is only so conceived,
And build an edifice of form
For house where phantoms may keep warm.”
