Famous quotes containing the words white and/or cedar:

    “Child, the current of your breath is six days long.
    You lie, a small knuckle on my white bed;
    lie, fisted like a snail, so small and strong
    at my breast. Your lips are animals; you are fed
    with love.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    It was snowing
    And it was going to snow.
    The blackbird sat
    In the cedar limbs.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
