Famous quotes containing the words grim grinning, grim, grinning and/or ghosts:

    —But he, grim grinning King,
    Who caitiffs scorns, and doth the blest surprise,
    Late having deck’d with beauty’s rose his tomb,
    Disdains to crop a weed, and will not come.
    William Drummond, of Hawthornden (1585–1649)

    O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
    The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
    The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
    While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
    But O heart! heart! heart!
    O the bleeding drops of red,
    Where on the deck my Captain lies,
    Fallen cold and dead.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    What is reality?
    I am a plaster doll; I pose
    with eyes that cut open without landfall or nightfall
    upon some shellacked and grinning person,
    eyes that open, blue, steel, and close.
    Am I approximately an I. Magnin transplant?
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    the ghosts of the tribe
    Crouch in the nights beside the ghost of a fire, they try to
    remember the sunlight,
    Light has died out of their skies.
    Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
