Head Painted Light

Famous quotes containing the words head, painted and/or light:

    “Thy hatred for this misery befallen;
    On me already lost, me than thyself
    More miserable. Both have sinned, but thou
    Against God only; I against God and thee,
    And to the place of judgment will return,
    There with my cries importune Heaven, that all
    The sentence, from thy head removed, may light
    On me, sole cause to thee of all this woe,
    Me, me only, just object of his ire.””
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “There must be real gods
    see, the painted gods
    how fair!”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “The earth had a single light afar,
    A flickering, human pathetic light,
    That was maintained against the night,
    It seemed to me, by the people there,
    With a Godforsaken brute despair.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
