Crane

Famous quotes containing the word crane:

    The imaged word, it is that holds
    Hushed willows anchored in its glow.
    It is the unbetrayable reply
    Whose accent no farewell can know.
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    O Sleepless as the river under thee,
    Vaulting the sea, the prairies dreaming sod,
    Unto us lowliest sometime sweep, descend
    As of the curveship lend a myth to God.
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    Always and last, before the final ring
    When all the fireworks blare, begins
    A tom-tom scrimmage with a somewhere violin,
    Some cheapest echo of them all—begins.
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)
