Marianne Moore
You are not male nor female, but a plan
deep-set within the heart of man.
Moore quotes
Beauty is everlasting
and dust is for a time.
Moore
He's not out
seeing a sight but the rock
crystal thing to see — the startling El Greco
brimming with inner light — that
covets nothing that it has let go. This then you may know
as the hero.
