Shake Shingles

Famous quotes containing the words shake and/or shingles:

“Mind not the old man beseeching the young man;
Let not the child’s voice be heard, nor the mother’s entreaties;
Make even the trestles to shake the dead, where they lie awaiting
the hearses,
So strong you thump, O terrible drums—so loud you bugles blow.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

“When the shingles hissed
in the rain incendiary,
other values were revealed to us,”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
