Show Faced

Famous quotes containing the words show and/or faced:

    Back now to autumn, leaving the ended husk
    Of summer that brought them here for Show Saturday
    The men with hunters, dog-breeding wool-defined women,
    Children all saddle-swank, mugfaced middleaged wives
    Glaring at jellies, husbands on leave from the garden
    Watchful as weasels, car-tuning curt-haired sons
    Back now, all of them, to their local lives....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Pompeius, best of all my comrades, you and I
    Often faced death when we were rebels.
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8)
