Famous quotes containing the words tear and/or drop:
“The brown waves of fog toss up to me
Twisted faces from the bottom of the street,
And tear from a passer-by with muddy skirts
An aimless smile that hovers in the air
And vanishes along the level of the roofs.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“As the clouds the clouds chase;
And we go,
And we drop like the fruits of the tree,
Even we,
Even so.”
—George Meredith (1828–1909)
