Famous quotes containing the words power and/or stations:

    it is a power of
    strong enchantment. It
    is like the dove-
    neck animated by
    sun; it is memory’s eye;
    it’s conscientious inconsistency.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    mourn

    The majesty and burning of the child’s death.
    I shall not murder
    The mankind of her going with a grave truth
    Nor blaspheme down the stations of the breath
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
