Famous quotes containing the words mind and/or wipe:
“Your mind now, moldering like wedding-cake,
heavy with useless experience, rich
with suspicion, rumor, fantasy,
crumbling to pieces under the knife-edge
of mere fact. In the prime of your life.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“Gloucester. O, let me kiss that hand!
Lear. Let me wipe it first, it smells of mortality.
Gloucester. O ruined piece of nature! This great world
Shall so wear out to nought.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
