Shedding Blade

Famous quotes containing the words shedding and/or blade:

    Persephone herself is but a voice
    or a darkness invisible enfolded in the deeper dark
    of the arms Plutonic, and pierced with the passion of dense gloom,
    among the splendor of torches of darkness, shedding darkness on the
    lost bride and her groom.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    It required some rudeness to disturb with our boat the mirror-like surface of the water, in which every twig and blade of grass was so faithfully reflected; too faithfully indeed for art to imitate, for only Nature may exaggerate herself.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
