Overhead Door

Famous quotes containing the words overhead and/or door:

“During a walk or in a book or in the middle of an embrace, suddenly I awake to a stark amazement at everything. The bare fact of existence paralyzes me... To be alive is so incredible that all I can do is to lie still and merely breathe—like an infant on its back in a cot. It is impossible to be interested in anything in particular while overhead the sun shines or underneath my feet grows a single blade of grass.”
—W.N.P. Barbellion (1889–1919)

“I know, although when looks meet
I tremble to the bone,
The more I leave the door unlatched
The sooner love is gone....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
