Famous quotes containing the words carrying and/or vest:
“He was carrying our blood.
One blood.
To pray, Jesus knew,
is to be a man carrying a man.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“Here at the fountain’s sliding foot,
Or at some fruit-tree’s mossy root,
Casting the body’s vest aside,
My soul into the boughs does glide:
There, like a bird, it sits and sings,
Then whets and combs its silver wings,
And, till prepared for longer flights,
Waves in its plumes the various light.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
