Bly

Famous quotes containing the word bly:

    Some men live with an invisible limp,
    stagger, or drag
    a leg. Their sons are often angry.
    —Robert Bly (b. 1926)

    Now we sing, and do tiny dances on the kitchen floor.
    Our whole body is like a harbor at dawn;
    We know that our master has left us for the day.
    —Robert Bly (b. 1926)

    If a man, cautious,
    hides his limp,
    Somebody has to limp it! Things
    do it; the surroundings limp.
    House walls get scars,
    the car breaks down; matter, in drudgery, takes it up.
    —Robert Bly (b. 1926)
