Judges Watch

Famous quotes containing the words judges and/or watch:

    How utterly futile debauchery seems once it has been accomplished, and what ashes of disgust it leaves in the soul! The pity of it is that the soul outlives the body, or in other words that impression judges sensation and that one thinks about and finds fault with the pleasure one has taken.
    Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)

    On a snug evening I shall watch her fingers,
    Cleverly ringed, declining to clever pink,
    Beg glory from the willing keys. Old hungers
    Will break their coffins, rise to eat and thank.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
