“Even the most incompetent English actor, coming on the stage briefly to announce the presence below of Lord and Lady Ditherege, gives forth a sound so soft and dulcet as almost to be a bar of music. But sometimes that is all there is. The words are lost in the graceful sweep of the notes.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“And in a soft and fundamental hour
a sorcery devout and vertical
beguiled the world.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“Like a wet log, I sang within a flame.
In that last while, eternity’s confine,
I came to love, I came into my own.”
—Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
