Horizontal Ellipsis Character

Famous quotes containing the words horizontal and/or character:

    “And yet out of eternity, a thread
    separates itself on the blackness,
    a horizontal thread
    that fumes a little with pallor upon the dark.”

    “But boys and girls, pale from the imagined love
    Of solitary beds, knew what they were,

    And pressed at midnighht in some public place
    Live lips upon a plummet-measured face.”
