Black Bars

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or bars:

    My black sun, my
    Odessa sunflower,
    spurs of Tartar gold
    ring at your ankles,
    you stand taller before me than the ten
    towers of Jerusalem.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Stone walls do not a prison make,
    Nor iron bars a cage;
    Minds innocent and quiet take
    That for an hermitage;
    If I have freedom in my love
    And in my soul am free,
    Angels alone, that soar above,
    Enjoy such liberty.
    Richard Lovelace (1618–1658)
