Famous quotes containing the word bent:

    While I wrought out these fitful Danaan rhymes,
    My heart would brim with dreams about the times
    When we bent down above the fading coals
    And talked of the dark folk who live in souls
    Of passionate men, like bats in the dead trees....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
