Clutching Hand

Famous quotes containing the words clutching and/or hand:

    We returned to our places, these Kingdoms,
    But no longer at ease here, in the old dispensation,
    With an alien people clutching their gods.
    I should be glad of another death.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The hand that signed the paper felled a city;
    Five sovereign fingers taxed the breath,
    Doubled the globe of dead and halved a country;
    These five kings did a king to death.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
