Glass Buttons

Famous quotes containing the words glass and/or buttons:

    Like a wild stranger out of wizard-land
    He dwelt a little with us, and withdrew;
    Black and unblossomed were the ways he knew,
    Dark was the glass through which his fire eye shined.
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    With crayons the child draws a rigid house
    and a winding pathway. Then the child
    puts in a man with buttons like tears
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
