Famous quotes containing the word names:

    Tonight there are only the winter stars.
    The sky is no longer a junk-shop,
    Full of javelins and old fire-balls,
    Triangles and the names of girls.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    I come to this land to ride my horse,
    to try my own guitar, to copy out
    their two separate names like sunflowers, to conjure
    up my daily bread, to endure,
    somehow to endure.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
