Crane

Famous quotes containing the word crane:

    Always and last, before the final ring
    When all the fireworks blare, begins
    A tom-tom scrimmage with a somewhere violin,
    Some cheapest echo of them all—begins.
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    You who desired so much—in vain to ask—
    Yet fed your hunger like an endless task,
    Dared dignify the labor, bless the quest—
    Achieved that stillness ultimately best,
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    they are brown and soft,
    And liable to melt as snow.
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)
