Haunts

Famous quotes containing the word haunts:

    If an addict who has been completely cured starts smoking again he no longer experiences the discomfort of his first addiction. There exists, therefore, outside alkaloids and habit, a sense for opium, an intangible habit which lives on, despite the recasting of the organism.... The dead drug leaves a ghost behind. At certain hours it haunts the house.
    Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)

    I come from haunts of coot and hern,
    I make a sudden sally,
    And sparkle out among the fern
    To bicker down a valley.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    gird the windy grove,
    And flood the haunts of hern and crake;
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
