Babies

Famous quotes containing the word babies:

    If in a shimmering room the babies came,
    Drawn close by dreams of fledgling wing,
    It was because night nursed them in its fold.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    He tells me how sweet
    The babies look in their hospital
    Icebox,
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    What peaches and what penumbras! Whole families shopping at night!
    Aisles full of husbands! Wives in the avocados, babies in the
    tomatoes!—and you, Garcia Lorca, what were you doing down by
    the watermelons?
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
