Internal Colonies

Famous quotes containing the words internal and/or colonies:

“You will see Coleridge—he who sits obscure
In the exceeding lustre and the pure
Intense irradiation of a mind,
Which, with its own internal lightning blind,
Flags wearily through darkness and despair—
A cloud-encircled meteor of the air,
A hooded eagle among blinking owls.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

“What is music. A passion for colonies not a love of country.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
