Purple Kick

Famous quotes containing the words purple and/or kick:

    And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
    Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
    There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
    And evening full of the linnet’s wings.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Last season’s fruit is eaten
    And the fullfed beast shall kick the empty pail.
    For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
    And next year’s words await another voice.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
