Neon Rome

Famous quotes containing the words neon and/or rome:

    and in moonlight she comes in her nudity,
    flashing breasts made of milk-water,
    flashing buttocks made of unkillable lust,
    and at night when you enter her
    you shine like a neon soprano.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The old world stands serenely behind the new, as one mountain yonder towers behind another, more dim and distant. Rome imposes her story still upon this late generation.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
