Mystical

Famous quotes containing the word mystical:

    Is thy home European or Asian,
    O mystical monster marine?
    Arthur Clement Hilton (1851–1877)

    It leaps through us, through all our heavens leaps,
    Extinguishing our planets, one by one,
    Leaving, of where we were and looked, of where
    We knew each other and of each other thought,
    A shivering residue, chilled and foregone,
    Except for that crown and mystical cabala.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he lectured with such applause in the lecture room,
    How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick;
    Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself,
    In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
    Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
