Secondary Sail

Famous quotes containing the words secondary and/or sail:

    “Cloud-clown, blue painter, sun as horn,
    Hill-scholar, man that never is,
    The bad-bespoken lacker,
    Ancestor of Narcissus, prince
    Of the secondary men. There are no rocks
    And stones, only this imager.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “O bid me mount and sail up there
    Amid the cloudy wrack,
    For Peg and Meg and Paris’ love
    That had so straight a back,
    Are gone away, and some that stay
    Have changed their silk for sack.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
