Scraped Sticks

Famous quotes containing the words scraped and/or sticks:

“Let it be stairways, and a splintery box
Where you have thrown me, scraped me with your kiss,
Have honed me, have released me after this
Cavern kindness smiled away our shocks.
That is the birthright of our lovely love
In swaddling clothes.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

“A fat stomach sticks out too far, Monsieur La Rue. It prevents you from looking down and seeing what is going on around you.”
