Kisses

Famous quotes containing the word kisses:

“A hook shot kisses the rim and
hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop

and for once our gangly starting center
boxes out his man and times his jump

perfectly, gathering the orange leather
from the air like a cherished possession”
—Edward Hirsch (b. 1950)

“Dear as remembered kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feigned
On lips that are for others; deep as love,
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret;
O Death in Life, the days that are no more.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

“Augusta: You have an ant strolling up your cheek.
Tom: I wish it were your lips. [She kisses him] Such a little kiss.
Augusta: Such a little ant.
Tom: Wish it had been an elephant.”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
