Famous quotes containing the word author:
“Thus far with rough and all-unable pen
Our bending author hath pursued the story.
In little room confining mighty men.”

“You’ve strung your breasts
with a rattling rope of pearls,
tied a jangling belt
around those deadly hips
and clinking jewelled anklets
on both your feet.
So, stupid,
if you run off to your lover like this,
banging all these drums,
then why
do you shudder with all this fear
and look up, down;
in every direction?”
