Left Hook

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or hook:

    Where has it gone, the lifetime?
    Search me. What’s left is drear.
    Unchilded and unwifed, I’m
    Able to view that clear:
    So final. And so near.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    A hook shot kisses the rim and
    hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop

    and for once our gangly starting center
    boxes out his man and times his jump

    perfectly, gathering the orange leather
    from the air like a cherished possession
    Edward Hirsch (b. 1950)
