Famous quotes containing the words long and/or hood:

    “The mad girl with the staring eyes and long white fingers
    Hooked in the stones of the wall,”
    —Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)

    “Work—work—work,
    In the dull December light,
    And work—work—work,
    When the weather is warm and bright—
    While underneath the eaves
    The brooding swallows cling
    As if to show me their sunny backs
    And twit me with the spring.”
    —Thomas Hood (1799–1845)
