Famous quotes containing the words dines and/or shooting:
“Take adultery or theft.
Merely sins.
It is evil who dines on the soul,
stretching out its long bone tongue.
It is evil who tweezers my heart,
picking out its atomic worms.”

“Her eyes the glow-worm lend thee,
The shooting stars attend thee;”
