Famous quotes containing the words trail and/or features:
“The ghosts of the villages trail in the sky
Making a new twilight”
—William Stanley Merwin (b. 1927)
“The features of our face are hardly more than gestures which force of habit made permanent. Nature, like the destruction of Pompeii, like the metamorphosis of a nymph into a tree, has arrested us in an accustomed movement.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
