Famous quotes containing the words moment and/or form:

    The right moment wears a full head of hair: when it has been missed, you can’t get it back; it’s bald in the back of the head and never turns around.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    A form upon the quilted
    overcast, gleam, Sacrè
    Coeur, saltlick
    to the mind’s
    desire
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
