Famous quotes containing the words grim, grinning and/or ghosts:

    Here lies the body of William Jones
    Who all his life collected bones,
    Till Death, that grim and boney spectre,
    That universal bone collector,
    Boned old Jones, so neat and tidy,
    And here he lies, all bona fide.
    —Anonymous. “Epitaph on William Jones,” from Eleanor Broughton’s Varia (1925)

    What is reality?
    I am a plaster doll; I pose
    with eyes that cut open without landfall or nightfall
    upon some shellacked and grinning person,
    eyes that open, blue, steel, and close.
    Am I approximately an I. Magnin transplant?
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    They call them the haunted shores, these stretches of Devonshire and Cornwall and Ireland which rear up against the westward ocean. Mists gather here, and sea fog, and eerie stories. That’s not because there are more ghosts here than in other places, mind you. It’s just that people who live hereabouts are strangely aware of them.
    Dodie Smith, and Lewis Allen. Roderick Fitzgerald (Ray Milland)
