Famous quotes containing the words morning, glory and/or pool:

    “Black pit cold and light-year
    Flame tongue of the dragon
    Licks the sun

    The sun is but a morning star”
    —Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    “Towards him they bend
    With awful reverence prone; and as a God
    Extoll him equal to the highest in Heav’n:
    Nor fail’d they to express how much they prais’d,
    That for the general safety he despis’d
    His own: for neither do the Spirits damn’d
    Loose all thir vertue; lest bad men should boast
    Thir specious deeds on earth, which glory excites,
    Or close ambition varnisht o’er with zeal.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “Just getting in the pool for seven straight hours is unbearable to me.... It’s grueling. There’s nothing physically pleasurable about it. If you’re doing a hard workout, you’re throwing up in the gutter. At night you cling to your pillow and just hope that your body revives before you have to go back and do it again.”
    —Diana Nyad (b. 1949)
