Town Burns

Famous quotes containing the words town and/or burns:

    “The mountain held the town as in a shadow.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Unmeasured power, incredible passion, enormous craft: no thought
    apparent but burns darkly
    Smothered with its own smoke in the human brain-vault: no thought
    outside; a certain measure in phenomena:
    The fountains of the boiling stars, the flowers on the foreland, the
    ever-returning roses of dawn.”
    —Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
