Hood

Famous quotes containing the word hood:

“Work—work—work,
In the dull December light,
And work—work—work,
When the weather is warm and bright—
While underneath the eaves
The brooding swallows cling
As if to show me their sunny backs
And twit me with the spring.”
—Thomas Hood (1799–1845)

“A certain portion of the human race
Has certainly a taste for being diddled.”

Seemed washing his hands with invisible soap,
In imperceptible water.”
—Thomas Hood (1799–1845)
