Divine Body

Famous quotes containing the words divine and/or body:

    The poet’s body even is not fed like other men’s, but he sometimes tastes the genuine nectar and ambrosia of the gods, and lives a divine life. By the healthful and invigorating thrills of inspiration his life is preserved to a serene old age.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Linda, you are leaving
    your old body now.
    It lies flat, an old butterfly,
    all arm, all leg, all wing,
    loose as an old dress.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
