Thomas Stearns

Famous quotes containing the words thomas stearns and/or thomas:

    Or as, when an underground train, in the tube, stops too long between stations
    And the conversation rises and slowly fades into silence
    And you see behind every face the mental emptiness deepen
    Leaving only the growing terror of nothing to think about....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    till seven years were gane and past,
    True Thomas on earth was never seen.
