Starting Times

Famous quotes containing the words starting and/or times:

    Down went the owners—greedy men whom hope of gain allured:
    Oh, dry the starting tear, for they were heavily insured.
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    Surely I remember the hooks
    of her fingers curled on mine, though even now
    will not admit the times I did avoid this street,
    where she lived on and on like a bleached fig
    and forgot us anyhow....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
