Curves Left

Famous quotes containing the words curves and/or left:

“For a hundred and fifty years, in the pasture of dead horses,
roots of pine trees pushed through the pale curves of your ribs,
yellow blossoms flourished above you in autumn, and in winter
frost heaved your bones in the ground—old toilers, soil makers:
O Roger, Mackerel, Riley, Ned, Nellie, Chester, Lady Ghost.”
—Donald Hall (b. 1928)

“While the old couple, just astir,
Fancy the sunrise left the door ajar!”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
