Famous quotes containing the words carrion and/or crow:
“So every journey that I make
Leads me, as in the story he was led,
To some new ambush, to some fresh mistake:
So every journey I begin foretells
A weariness of daybreak, spread
With carrion kisses, carrion farewells.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“I saw a crow by Red Rock
standing on one leg
It was the black of your hair
The years are heavy”
—N. Scott Momaday (b. 1934)
