“Imagination is the real and eternal world of which this vegetable universe is but a faint shadow.”
William Blake
“'Twas whispered in heaven, 'twas muttered in hell, / And echo caught faintly the sound as it fell; / On the confines of earth 'twas permitted to rest, / And the depths of the ocean its presence confessed.”
Catherine Maria Fanshawe
“Uncouth tongues, horrible shriekings of despair, Shrill and faint voices, cries of pain and rage, And, with it all, smiting of hands, were there, Making a tumult, nothing could assuage, To swirl in the air that knows not day or night, Like sand withi”
Dante Alighieri
“And with faint praises one another damn.”
William Wycherley
