Coming

Famous quotes containing the word coming:

    A glimpse through an interstice caught,
    Of a crowd of workmen and drivers in a barroom around the stove late of a winter night, and I unremarked seated in a corner,
    Of a youth who loves me and whom I love, silently approaching and seating himself near, that he may hold me by the hand,
    A long while amid the noises of coming and going, of drinking and
    oath and smutty jest,
    There we two, content, happy in being together, speaking little,
    perhaps not a word.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    I know if I wake up cold,

    and go out into the clear spring night,
    still dark and precise with stars,
    I will feel the wind coming down hard
    like his hand, in fever, on my forehead.
    Stanley Plumly (b. 1939)

    “Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 6:31.

    Jesus to the disciples.
