Famous quotes containing the word objects:

    My objects dream and wear new costumes,
    compelled to, it seems, by all the words in my hands
    and the sea that bangs in my throat.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The sort of poetry I seek resides in objects Man can’t touch.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
