Simple Bodies

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or bodies:

    Uncontradicting solitude
    Supports me on its giant palm;
    And like a sea-anemone
    or simple snail, there cautiously
    Unfolds, emerges, what I am.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Would you ascend to Heaven and bodiless dwell?
    Or take your bodies honorless to Hell?

    In Heaven you have heard no marriage is,
    No white flesh tinder to your lecheries,
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
