Fat Beats

Famous quotes containing the words fat and/or beats:

    “O why do you walk through the fields in gloves,
    Missing so much and so much?
    O fat white woman whom nobody loves,
    Why do you walk through the fields in gloves,
    When the grass is soft as the breast of doves
    And shivering sweet to the touch?”
    —Frances Cornford (1886–1960)

    “Mind in its purest play is like some bat
    That beats about in caverns all alone,
    Contriving by a kind of senseless wit
    Not to conclude against a wall of stone.”
    —Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)
