Kisses

Famous quotes containing the word kisses:

    Chaos in windy grays
    through a red prairie.”

    “Injurious Time now, with a robber’s haste,
    Crams his rich thievery up, he knows not how;
    As many farewells as be stars in heaven,
    With distinct breath and consigned kisses to them,
    He fumbles up into a loose adieu,
    And scants us with a single famished kiss,
    Distasted with the salt of broken tears.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Ah, there should be a young man, ein schone Junge carrying Blumen, a bouquet of roses. There should be cold Rhine wine and Strauss waltzes, and on the long way home kisses in the shadow of an archway, like a Cinderella.”
    —Laurence Stallings (1894–1968)
