Bottom

Famous quotes containing the word bottom:

“Many divorces are not really the result of irreparable injury but involve, instead, a desire on the part of the man or woman to shatter the setup, start out from scratch alone, and make life work for them all over again. They want the risk of disaster, want to touch bottom, see where bottom is, and, coming up, to breathe the air with relief and relish again.”
—Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)

“What a man is ashamed of is always at bottom himself; and he is ashamed of himself at bottom always for being afraid.”
—R.G. (Robin George)

“He saw her from the bottom of the stairs
Before she saw him. She was starting down,
Looking back over her shoulder at some fear.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
