Razor Defeated

Famous quotes containing the words razor and/or defeated:

    Experience has taught me, when I am shaving of a morning, to keep watch over my thoughts, because, if a line of poetry strays into my memory, my skin bristles so that the razor ceases to act.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    Vanquished in life, his death
    By beauty made amends:
    The passing of his breath
    Won his defeated ends.
