Japanese Descent

Famous quotes containing the words japanese and/or descent:

    I am a lantern—
    My head a moon
    Of Japanese paper, my gold beaten skin
    Infinitely delicate and infinitely expensive.

    And every stone shall cry,
    In praises of the child
    By whose descent among us
    The worlds are reconciled.
