Glass

Famous quotes containing the word glass:

“the loose fragrant cavendish
and the shag,
And the bright Virginia
loose under the bright glass cases,”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“Like a wild stranger out of wizard-land
He dwelt a little with us, and withdrew;
Black and unblossomed were the ways he knew,
Dark was the glass through which his fire eye shined.”
—Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

“Our ideal ... must be a language as clear as glass—the person looking out of the window knows there is glass there, but he is not concerned with it; what concerns him is what comes through from the other side.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
