Red Stockings

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or stockings:

    His breast was deep and white,
    cold and caressable;
    his eyes were red glass,
    much to be desired.
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    Lord Hamlet, with his doublet all unbraced,
    No hat upon his head, his stockings fouled,
    Ungartered, and down-gyved to his ankle,
    Pale as his shirt, his knees knocking each other,
    And with a look so piteous in purport
    As if he had been loosed out of hell
    To speak of horrors.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
