Famous quotes containing the words key and/or figures:

    At the last, tenderly,
    From the walls of the powerful fortress’d house,
    From the clasp of the knitted locks, from the keep of the well-closed doors,
    Let me be wafted.

    Let me glide noiselessly forth;
    With the key of softness unlock the locks—with a whisper,
    Set ope the doors O soul.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    She, while her lover pants upon her breast,
    Can mark the figures on an Indian chest.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
