Buzz

Famous quotes containing the word buzz:

    “... You can hear the small buzz saws whine, the big saw
    Caterwaul to the hills around the village
    As they both bite the wood. It’s all our music.
    One ought as a good villager to like it.
    No doubt it has a sort of prosperous sound,
    And it’s our life.”
    “Yes, when it’s not our death.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Piece by piece I seem
    to re-enter the world: I first began
    a small, fixed dot, still see
    that old myself, a dark-blue thumbtack
    pushed into the scene,
    a hard little head protruding
    from the pointillist’s buzz and bloom.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    The buzz saw snarled and rattled in the yard
    And made dust and dropped stove-length sticks of wood,
    Sweet-scented stuff when the breeze drew across it.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
