Drops Classic Hits

Famous quotes containing the words drops, classic and/or hits:

    “I stand on top
    of our back steps and breathe the rich air—
    a mother skunk with her column of kittens swills the garbage pail.
    She jabs her wedge-head in a cup
    of sour cream, drops her ostrich tail,
    and will not scare.”
    —Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    “A classic is a book that has never finished saying what it has to say.”
    —Italo Calvino (1923–1985)

    “Life begins to happen.
    My hoppped up husband drops his home disputes,
    and hits the streets to cruise for prostitutes,”
    —Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
