Additional quotes by Wallace Stevens

Take from the dresser of deal, Lacking the three glass knobs, that sheet On which she embroidered fantails once And spread it so as to cover her face. If her horny feet protrude, they come To show how cold she is, and dumb. Let the lamp affix its beam. The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.

The reader became the book; and summer night
Was like the conscious being of the book.

Poetry is an abstraction bloodied.

Aún no habías nacido cuando los árboles eran cristal ni has nacido ahora, en esta vigilia dentro de un sueño. - Wallace Stevens
