Dylan Thomas Quotes About Heart

Quotes about: Heart

• I love you so much I’ll never be able to tell you; I’m frightened to tell you. I can always feel your heart. Dance tunes are always right: I love you body and soul: —and I suppose body means that I want to touch you and be in bed with you, and i suppose soul means that i can hear you and see you and love you in every single, single thing in the whole world asleep or awake

  Dylan Thomas

  Love You, Mean, Heart

• Light breaks where no sun shines; Where no sea runs, the waters of the heart; Push in their tides.

  Dylan Thomas

  Love, Running, Heart

  'Light breaks where no sun shines' (1934)

• Especially when the October wind With frosty fingers punishes my hair, Caught by the crabbing sun I walk on fire And cast a shadow crab upon the land, By the sea's side, hearing the noise of birds, Hearing the raven cough in winter sticks, My busy heart who shudders as she talks Sheds the syllabic blood and drains her words.

  Dylan Thomas

  Heart, Winter, Fire

  Dylan Thomas, Daniel Jones (2003). “The Poems of Dylan Thomas”, p.116, New Directions Publishing

• In my craft or sullen art Exercised in the still night When only the moon rages And the lovers lie abed With all their griefs in their arms, I labour by singing light Not for ambition or bread Or the strut and trade of charms On the ivory stages But for the common wages Of their most secret heart. Not for the proud man apart From the raging moon I write On these spindrift pages Nor for the towering dead With their nightingales and psalms But for the lovers, their arms Round the griefs of the ages, Who pay no praise or wages Nor heed my craft or art.

  Dylan Thomas

  Art, Lying, Grief

  In My Craft or Sullen Art" l. 17 (1946)

• Friend, my enemy, I call you out. You, you, you there with a bad thorn in your side. You there, my friend, with a winning air. Who pawned the lie on me when he looked brassly at my shyest secret. With my whole heart under your hammer. That though I loved him for his faults as much as for his good. My friend were an enemy upon stilts with his head in a cunning cloud. -Dylan Thomas

  Dylan Thomas

• I have been told to reason by the heart,
  But heart, like head, leads helplessly;
  I have been told to reason by the pulse,
  And, when it quickens, alter the actions' pace

  Dylan Thomas

  Heart, Pulse, Pace
