Pointed

Famous quotes containing the word pointed:

“The mountain stood there to be pointed at.
Pasture ran up the side a little way,
And then there was a wall of trees with trunks;
After that only tops of trees, and cliffs
Imperfectly concealed among the leaves.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“Punctually at Christmas the soft plush
Of sentiment snows down, embosoms all
The sharp and pointed shapes of venom,”
—William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)

“A hairy quadruped, furnished with a tail and pointed ears, probably arboreal in its habits.”
—Charles Darwin (1809–1882)
