Famous quotes containing the words thomas, walter and/or jennings:

    I died before bedtime came
    But my womb was bellowing
    And I felt with my bare fall
    A blazing red harsh head tear up
    And the dear floods of his hair.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Right now he’s suffering the cruelest tortures the Germans can devise. But he won’t talk—not as long as he can stand that punishment. And no human body can stand it too long—not even this wonderful, tough guy from Minnesota.
    John Monks, Jr., U.S. screenwriter, Sy Bartlett, and Henry Hathaway. Gibson (Frank Lattimore? Walter Abel? Melville Cooper?)

    At last now you can be
    What the old cannot recall
    And the young long for in dreams,
    Yet still include them all.
    —Elizabeth Jennings (b. 1926)
