Famous quotes containing the words disperse and/or red:
“Either disperse these mists, which blot and fill
My perspective, still, as they pass:
Or else remove me hence unto that hill
Where I shall need no glass.”
—Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
“With the old kindness, the old distinguished grace,
She lies, her lovely piteous head amid dull red hair
Propped upon pillows, rouge on the pallor of her face.
She would not have us sad because she is lying there,
And when she meets our gaze her eyes are laughter-lit,
Her speech a wicked tale that we may vie with her....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
