Painted Lines

Famous quotes containing the words painted and/or lines:

“There must be real gods
see, the painted gods
how fair!”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“To understand
The signs that stars compose, we need depend
Only on stars that are entirely there
And the apparent space between them. There
Never need be lines between them, puzzling
Our sense of what is what.”
—John Hollander (b. 1929)
