Hip Sockets Faced

Famous quotes containing the words hip, sockets and/or faced:

    Rituals are important. Nowadays it’s hip not to be married. I’m not interested in being hip.
    John Lennon (1940–1980)

    Webster was much possessed by death
    And saw the skull beneath the skin;
    And breastless creatures under ground
    Leaned backward with a lipless grin.

    Daffodil bulbs instead of balls
    Stared from the sockets of the eyes!
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The proclamation and repetition of first principles is a constant feature of life in our democracy. Active adherence to these principles, however, has always been considered un-American. We recipients of the boon of liberty have always been ready, when faced with discomfort, to discard any and all first principles of liberty, and, further, to indict those who do not freely join with us in happily arrogating those principles.
    David Mamet (b. 1947)
