Famous quotes containing the words brush and/or rabbit:

    The moth’s kiss first!
    Kiss me as if you made believe
    You were not sure, this eve,
    How my face, your flower, had pursed
    Its petals up; so, here and there
    You brush it, till I grow aware
    Who wants me, and wide ope I burst.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    My whole outlook on life changed with those three little words, “The rabbit died.”
    —Anonymous Mother. Quoted in When Men Are Pregnant, ch. 5, Jerrold Lee Shapiro (1987)
