Famous quotes containing the words grave and/or sight:
“Look. And the dancers move
On the departed, snow bushed green, wanton in moon light
As a dust of pigeons. Exulting, the grave hooved
Horses, centaur dead, turn and tread the drenched white
Paddocks in the farms of birds. The dead oak walks for love.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
“I’m telling the truth.
I’m standing at death’s door
and even today
my sight falls
on that thicket
on the Tpt’s pure banks,
just as before.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
