Bare Ground

Famous quotes containing the words bare and/or ground:

    the bare eyes were before me
    And the hissing hair,
    Held up at a window, seen through a door.
    The stiff bald eyes, the serpents on the forehead
    Formed in the air.
    Louise Bogan (1897–1970)

    I feel ruefully sure, also, that one must be at least one sort of fool to rush in over ground so well trodden by the angels.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)
