Famous quotes containing the words buck and/or knives:
“As a great buck it powerfully appeared,
Pushing the crumpled water up ahead,
And landed pouring like a waterfall,
And stumbled through the rocks with horny tread,
And forced the underbrush—and that was all.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Through open doors, the dining-room declares
A larger loneliness of knives and glass
And silence laid like carpet.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
