Poles Capture

Famous quotes containing the words poles and/or capture:

    “I see you boys of summer in your ruin.
    Man in his maggot’s barren.
    And boys are full and foreign in the pouch.
    I am the man your father was.
    We are the sons of flint and pitch.
    O see the poles are kissing as they cross.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “This is no rune nor symbol,
    what I mean is it is so simple
    yet no trick of the pen or brush
    could capture that impression;
    what I wanted to indicate was
    a new phase, a new distinction of colour.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
