Curved Braces

Famous quotes containing the words curved and/or braces:

Having curved outlines.
They are round
Tapering toward the top.”

“Dizzily down the abyss he wheels—
So fell Darius. Upon his crown,
In the midst of the barn-yard he came down,
In a wonderful whirl of tangled strings,
Broken braces and broken springs,
Broken tail and broken wings,”
—John Townsend Trowbridge (1827–1916)
