Left Brim

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or brim:

    The base emotions Plato banned
    have left a radio-active and not radiant land.
    Libby Houston (b. 1941)

    An oblong puddle inset in the coarse asphalt; like a fancy footprint filled to the brim with quicksilver; like a spatulate hole through which you can see the nether sky. Surrounded, I note, by a diffuse tentacled black dampness where some dull dun dead leaves have stuck. Drowned, I should say, before the puddle had shrunk to its present size.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
