Famous quotes containing the words ghost and/or light:

    The ghost of the heart of manred Cain
    And the more murderous brain
    Of Man, still redder Nero that conceived the death
    Of his mother Earth, and tore
    Her womb, to know the place where he was conceived.
    Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)

    Its quick silver bell beating, beating
    And down the dark one ruby flare
    Pulsing out red light like an artery,
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
