Famous quotes containing the words white and/or swan:

    “the only truth is face to face, the poem whose words become your
    mouth
    and dying in black and white we fight for what we love, not are”
    —Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)

    “And of the swan in death these dreamers tell
    of its last flight and how it falls, a plummet,
    pierced by the freezing bullet
    and how three feathers, loosened by the shot,
    descend like snow upon it.”
    —Patricia K. Page (b. 1916)
