Famous quotes containing the words buddha and/or statues:

    “The vast silence of Buddha overtakes
    and overrules the oncoming roar
    of tragic life that fills alleys and avenues;
    it blocks the way of pedicabs, police, convoys.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “But have you wine and music still,
    And statues and a bright-eyed love,
    And foolish thoughts of good and ill,
    And prayers to them who sit above?”
    —James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)
