Filthy

Famous quotes containing the word filthy:

    Doing, a filthy pleasure is, and short;
    And done, we straight repent us of the sport:
    Let us not then rush blindly on unto it,
    Like lustfull beasts, that onely know to doe it:
    Petronius Arbiter (d.A.D. 66)

    They dragged you from homeland,
    They chained you in coffles,
    They huddled you spoon-fashion in filthy hatches,
    They sold you to give a few gentlemen ease.
    Sterling Allen Brown (b. 1901)

    That is your trick, your bit of filthy magic:
    Invisibility, and the anaesthetic power
    To deaden my attention in your direction.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
