Moving Lights

Famous quotes containing the words moving and/or lights:

    I’m not making light of prayers here, but of so-called school prayer, which bears as much resemblance to real spiritual experience as that freeze-dried astronaut food bears to a nice standing rib roast. From what I remember of praying in school, it was almost an insult to God, a rote exercise in moving your mouth while daydreaming or checking out the cutest boy in the seventh grade that was a far, far cry from soul-searching.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    So the 20th Century—so
    whizzed the Limited—roared by and left
    three men, still hungry on the tracks, ploddingly
    watching the tail lights wizen and converge, slip-
    ping gimleted and neatly out of sight.
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)
