Coming

Famous quotes containing the word coming:

“Many of our daydreams would darken into nightmares, were there a danger of their coming true!”
—Logan Pearsall Smith (1865–1946)

“When the night’s coming and the last light falls
A weak child among lost shadows on the floor....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

“A glimpse through an interstice caught,
Of a crowd of workmen and drivers in a barroom around the stove late of a winter night, and I unremarked seated in a corner,
Of a youth who loves me and whom I love, silently approaching and seating himself near, that he may hold me by the hand,
A long while amid the noises of coming and going, of drinking and
oath and smutty jest,
There we two, content, happy in being together, speaking little,
perhaps not a word.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
