Famous quotes containing the words feather and/or cloak:
“Who blows death’s feather? What glory is colour?
I blow the stammel feather in the vein.
The loin is glory in a working pallor.
My clay unsuckled and my salt unborn,
The secret child, I shift about the sea
Dry in the half-tracked thigh.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
“But he lay like a warrior taking his rest
With his martial cloak around him.”
—Charles Wolfe (1791–1823)
