Old Wicked Songs - Characters

Famous quotes containing the word characters:

“For our vanity is such that we hold our own characters immutable, and we are slow to acknowledge that they have changed, even for the better.”

“Though they be mad and dead as nails,
Heads of the characters hammer through daisies;
Break in the sun till the sun breaks down,
And death shall have no dominion.”

“Waxed-fleshed out-patients
Still vague from accidents,
And characters in long coats
Deep in the litter-baskets
All dodging the toad work
By being stupid or weak.”
