Famous quotes containing the word couples:
“Could that old god rise up again
We’d drink a can or two,
And out and lay our leadership
On country and on town,
Throw likely couples into bed
And knock the others down.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“How it is I know not; but there is no place like a bed for confidential disclosures between friends. Man and wife, they say, there open the very bottom of their souls to each other; and some old couples often lie and chat over old times till nearly morning. Thus, then, in our hearts’ honeymoon, lay I and Queequeg—a cosy, loving pair.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“The evening falters. Couples in their coats
Are leaving gaps already, and the rest
Move tables closer.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
