Silk Mass

Famous quotes containing the words silk and/or mass:

    Like a skein of loose silk blown against a wall
    She walks by the railing of a path in Kensington Gardens,
    And she is dying piecemeal
    of a sort of emotional anemia.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    The best reason why Monarchy is a strong government is, that it is an intelligible government. The mass of mankind understand it, and they hardly anywhere in the world understand any other.
