Kisses

Famous quotes containing the word kisses:

“Augusta: You have an ant strolling up your cheek.

“Grovelling,
intimate words,
heart-stealing flattery,
a tight embrace
of my thinner-than-thin body,
violent kisses all over—
obviously,
getting angry is worth the risk,
but even still,
I’m not interested.
My lover
is dear to my heart,
so how could I be like that
on purpose?”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

“Your kisses close my eyes and yet you stare
As though God struck a child with nameless fears;”
—Alun Lewis (1915–1944)
