Fire Whitman

Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or whitman:

    Bare night is best. Bare earth is best. Bare, bare,
    Except for our own houses, huddled low
    Beneath the arches and their spangled air,
    Beneath the rhapsodies of fire and fire,
    Where the voice that is in us makes a true response....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Good-bye my Fancy!
    Farewell dear mate, dear love!
    I’m going away, I know not where,
    Or to what fortune, or whether I may ever see you again,
    So Good-bye my Fancy.
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
