Famous quotes containing the words italian and/or poet:

“If the study of his images
Is the study of man, this image of Saturday,
This Italian symbol, this Southern landscape, is like
A waking, as in images we awake,
Within the very object that we seek,
Participants of its being.”

“Flash’d from his bed the electric tidings came,
He is no better, he is much the same.”
