Die Walk

Famous quotes containing the words die and/or walk:

    The shadow of a mighty Negro past flits through the tale of Ethiopia the shadowy and of the Egypt the Sphinx. Throughout history, the powers of single blacks flash here and there like falling stars, and die sometimes before the world has rightly gauged their brightness.
    —W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)

    Let me walk through the fields of paper
    touching with my wand
    dry stems and stunted
    butterflies....
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
