Involuntary Memories

Famous quotes containing the words involuntary and/or memories:

    We are things of dry hours and the involuntary plan,
    Grayed in, and gray. “Dream” makes a giddy sound, not strong
    Like “rent,” “feeding a wife,” “satisfying a man.”
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Rose Aylmer, whom these wakeful eyes
    May weep, but never see,
    A night of memories and of sighs
    I consecrate to thee.
    Walter Savage Landor (1775–1864)
