Famous quotes containing the words smiling and/or faces:

    “But what now grips his fancy is her face,

    And how the cunning picture holds her still
    At just that smiling instant when her soul,
    Grown sweetly faint, and swept beyond control,
    Consents to his inexorable will.”
    —Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    “Next, pipes are lit by those who smoke, and veils are donned by those who have them, and we hastily examine and dry our plants, anoint our faces and hands, and go to bed—and—the mosquitoes.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
