Wire Strung Harp

Famous quotes containing the words wire, strung and/or harp:

    God, I am caught in a snare!
    I know not what fine wire is round my throat;
    I only know I let him finger there
    My pulse of life, and let him nose like a stoat
    Who sniffs with joy before he drinks the blood.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Keen instruments, strung to a vast precision
    Bind town to town and dream to ticking dream.
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    And tears are heard within the harp I touch.
    Petrarch (1304–1374)
