Pointed Breast Star

Famous quotes containing the words pointed, breast and/or star:

    “There had been no thievery or venality. We had all simply wandered into a situation unthinkingly, trying to protect ourselves from what we saw as a political problem. Now, suddenly, it was like a Rorschach ink blot: others, looking at our actions, pointed out a pattern that we ourselves had not seen.”
    —Richard M. Nixon (1913–1994)

    “O what to me the little room
    That was brimmed up with prayer and rest;
    He bade me out into the gloom,
    And my breast lies upon his breast.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
    And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,”
    —John Masefield (1878–1967)
