Power Losses

Famous quotes containing the words power and/or losses:

    it is a power of
    strong enchantment. It
    is like the dove-
    neck animated by
    sun; it is memory’s eye;
    it’s conscientious inconsistency.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    Hold back thy hours, dark Night, till we have done;
    The Day will come too soon.
    Young maids will curse thee, if thou steal’st away
    And leav’st their losses open to the day.
    Stay, stay, and hide
    The blushes of the bride.
    Francis Beaumont (1584-1616)
