“No, no, I am but shadow of myself:You are deceived, my substance is not here;”
“Coleridge wrote, "Dreams are no shadows, but the very substances and calamities of my life.”
“I am the immense shadow of my tears”
“Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadow.”
“Shadows and light deceived us, but sounds we followed true.”
“I am entirely alone. I and my shadow fill the universe.”
