Famous quotes containing the words beck and/or remained:
“In front of that sinner of a husband,
she rattled off
only those words
that her pack of vile-tongued girlfriends
taught her
as fast as she could,
and after,
began to behave
at the Love-god’s beck and call.
It’s indescribable,
this natural, charming
path of love,
paved with the gems
of inexperience.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
“Only one thing remained reachable, close and secure amid all losses: language.”
—Paul Celan [Paul Antschel] (1920–1970)
