Famous quotes containing the words glass and/or mirrors:
“Or your liquors seep to me, in this glass capsule,
Dulling and stilling.
But colourless. Colourless.”
—Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
“Poets are the hierophants of an unapprehended inspiration; the mirrors of the gigantic shadows which futurity casts upon the present; the words which express what they understand not; the trumpets which sing to battle and feel not what they inspire; the influence which is moved not, but moves. Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
