Optic Nerve Head

Famous quotes containing the words nerve and/or head:

“our nerve filaments twitch with its presence
day and night,
nothing we say has not the husky phlegm of it in the saying,
nothing we do has the quickness, the sureness,
the deep intelligence living at peace would have.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

“A king’s head is solemnly oiled at his coronation, even as a head of salad.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
