Hyaline Casts

Famous quotes containing the words hyaline and/or casts:

    Sunday at noon through hyaline thin air
    Sees down the street,
    And in the camera of my eye depicts
    Row-houses and row-lives:
    Glass after glass, door after door the same,
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    Poets are the hierophants of an unapprehended inspiration; the mirrors of the gigantic shadows which futurity casts upon the present; the words which express what they understand not; the trumpets which sing to battle and feel not what they inspire; the influence which is moved not, but moves. Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
