Famous quotes containing the words plaster and/or idols:
“The shadow of the Venetian blind on the painted wall,
Shadows of the snake-plant and cacti, the plaster animals,
Focus the tragic melancholy of the bright stare
Into nowhere, a hole like the black holes in space.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The idols have seen lots of poverty,
Snakes and gold and lice,
But not the truth....”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
