Marble Falls

Famous quotes containing the words marble and/or falls:

    “Light
    Flashed from his matted head and marble feet,
    He grappled at the net
    With the coiled, hurdling muscles of his thighs:
    The corpse was bloodless, a botch of reds and whites,”
    —Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    “Still falls the Rain—
    Dark as the world of man, black as our loss—
    Blind as the nineteen hundred and forty nails
    Upon the Cross.”
    —Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)
