Comb Rows

Famous quotes containing the words comb and/or rows:

    So summer comes in the end to these few stains
    And the rust and rot of the door through which she went.
    The house is empty. But here is where she sat
    To comb her dewy hair, a touchless light,
    Perplexed by its darker iridescences.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Creatures that hang themselves up like an old rag, to sleep;
    And disgustingly upside down.
    Hanging upside down like rows of disgusting old rags
    And grinning in their sleep.
    Bats!
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
