Bare Life

Famous quotes containing the words bare and/or life:

“Bare night is best. Bare earth is best. Bare, bare,
Except for our own houses, huddled low
Beneath the arches and their spangled air,
Beneath the rhapsodies of fire and fire,
Where the voice that is in us makes a true response....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“Like ultraviolet rays memory shows to each man in the book of life a script that invisibly and prophetically glosses the text.”
