Drops

Famous quotes containing the word drops:

“I stand on top
of our back steps and breathe the rich air—
a mother skunk with her column of kittens swills the garbage pail.
She jabs her wedge-head in a cup
of sour cream, drops her ostrich tail,
and will not scare.”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

“Dance there upon the shore;
What need have you to care
For wind or water’s roar?
And tumble out your hair
That the salt drops have wet....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“At a few drops of women’s rheum, which are
As cheap as lies, he sold the blood and labor
Of our great action.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
