Head Painted Light

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

    “The back somersault, the kip-up—
    And at last, the stand on his hands,
    Perfect, with his feet together,
    His head down, evenly breathing,”
    —James Dickey (b. 1923)

    “Watteau is no less an artist for having painted a fascia board while Sainsbury’s is no less effective a business for producing advertisements which entertain and educate instead of condescending and exploiting.”
    —Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)

    “This Light inspires, and plays upon
    The nose of Saint like Bag-pipe drone,
    And speaks through hollow empty Soul,
    As through a Trunk, or whisp’ring hole,
    Such language as no mortal Ear
    But spiritual Eve-droppers can hear.”
    —Samuel Butler (1612–1680)
