Ocean Pond

Famous quotes containing the words ocean and/or pond:

    the ocean, under the pulsation of lighthouses and noise of bell
    buoys,
    advances as usual, looking as if it were not that ocean in which
    dropped things are bound to sink—
    in which if they turn and twist, it is neither with volition nor
    consciousness.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    You cutting the lawn, fixing the machines,
    all this leprous day and then more vodka,
    more soda and the pond forgiving our bodies,
    the pond sucking out the throb.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
