Set

Famous quotes containing the word set:

“They set up a noise like crickets,
A chattering wise and sweet,
And her hair was a folded flower
And the quiet of love in her feet.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“From too much love of living,
From hope and fear set free,
We thank with brief thanksgiving
Whatever gods may be
That no life lives for ever;
That dead men rise up never;
That even the weariest river
Winds somewhere safe to sea.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)

“Do I terrify?—

The nose, the eye pits, the full set of teeth?
The sour breath
Will vanish in a day.”
—Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
