Heavy

Famous quotes containing the word heavy:

    that blessed mood,
    In which the burthen of the mystery,
    In which the heavy and the weary weight
    Of all this unintelligible world
    Is lightened:—
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Feminism, like Boston, is a state of mind. It is the state of mind of women who realize that their whole position in the social order is antiquated, as a woman cooking over an open fire with heavy iron pots would know that her entire housekeeping was out of date.
    Rheta Childe Dorr (1866–1948)

    The heavy sensual shoulders, the thighs, the blood-born flesh
    and earth turning into color, rocks into their crystals,
    water to sound, fire to form: life flickers
    uncounted into the supple arms of love.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
