Normal Body Temperature

Famous quotes containing the words normal, body and/or temperature:

    You have promise, Mlle. Dubois, but you must choose between an operatic career and what is usually called “a normal life.” Though why it is so called is beyond me.
    Eric Taylor, Leroux, and Arthur Lubin. M. Villeneuve (Frank Puglia)

    Each body has its art, its precious prescribed
    Pose, that even in passion’s droll contortions, waltzes,
    Or push of pain or when a grief has stabbed,
    Or hatred hacked is its, and nothing else’s.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    The siren south is well enough, but New York, at the beginning of March, is a hoyden we would not care to miss—a drafty wench, her temperature up and down, full of bold promises and dust in the eye.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
