Rotten

Famous quotes containing the word rotten:

“Man was Cadaver’s masker, the harnessing mantle,
Windily master of man was the rotten fathom,
My ghost in his metal neptune
Forged in man’s mineral.
This was the god of beginning in the intricate seawhirl,
And my images roared and rose on heaven’s hill.”

Sebastian. As if it had lungs, and rotten ones.
Antonio. Or as ‘twere perfumed by a fen.”
