Famous quotes containing the words world and/or serpent:

    ‘Tis not need we know our every thought
    Or see the work shop where each mask is wrought
    Wherefrom we view the world of box and pit,
    Careless of wear, just so the mask shall fit
    And serve our jape’s turn for a night or two.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    Hell in a horn of sulphur and the cloven myth,
    All heaven in a midnight of the sun,
    A serpent fiddled in the shaping-time.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
