Famous quotes containing the word face:

    That neither present time, nor years unborn
    Could to my sight that heavenly face restore.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Time is here and you’ll go his way.
    Your lung is waiting in the death market.
    Your face beside me will grow indifferent.
    Darling, you will yield up your belly and be
    cored like an apple.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Through our sunless lanes creeps Poverty with her hungry eyes, and Sin with his sodden face follows close behind her. Misery wakes us in the morning and Shame sits with us at night.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
