Shattered

Famous quotes containing the word shattered:

    Time in the hand is not control of time,
    Nor shattered fragments of an instrument
    A proof against the wind; the wind will rise,
    We can only close the shutters.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    You are the brave who do not break
    In the grip of the mob when the blow comes straight
    To the shattered bone;
    Raymond R. Patterson (b. 1929)

    It tosses up our losses, the torn seine,
    The shattered lobster pot, the broken oar
    And the gear of foreign dead men. The sea has many voices,
    Many gods and many voices.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
