Spiders

Famous quotes containing the word spiders:

    I saw the spiders marching through the air,
    Swimming from tree to tree that mildewed day
    In latter August when the hay
    Came creaking to the barn.
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    A pretty little collection of weaknesses and a terror of spiders are our indispensable stock-in-trade with the men.
    Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)

    The mind cannot support moral chaos for long. Men are under as strong a compulsion to invent an ethical setting for their behavior as spiders are to weave themselves webs.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
