“She was in person full-limbed and somewhat heavy; without ruddiness, as without pallor; and soft to the touch as a cloud. To see her hair was to fancy that a whole winter did not contain darkness enough to form its shadow: it closed over her forehead like nightfall extinguishing the western glow.”

“I believe in the world as in a daisy,
Because I see it. But I don’t think about it,

(To think is to have eyes that aren’t well)
But to look at it and to be in agreement.”
― A Little Larger Than the Entire Universe: Selected Poems
