Face Buttons

Famous quotes containing the words face and/or buttons:

“My face is muffled in my mother’s clothing. Her rhinestones injure me. See: my feet are going. Fish flee the forefinger of my aunt. The sun streams over the geraniums. What has this to do with what I feel, with what I am.”
—William Gass (b. 1924)

“She hadn’t found the finger-bone she wanted
Among the buttons poured out in her lap.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
