Famous quotes containing the word brooks:

    Arrive in the afternoon, the late light slanting
    In diluted gold bars across the boulevard brag
    Of proud, seamed faces with mercy and murder hinting
    here, there, interrupting, all deep and debonair,
    The pink paint on the innocence of fear;
    Walk in a gingerly manner up the hall.
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Beware the/easy griefs, that fool and fuel nothing./It is too easy to cry “AFRIKA!”/and shock thy street,/and purse thy mouth,/and go home to thy “Gunsmoke,” to/thy “Gilligan’s Island” and the NFL.
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    And praises sing to God the King,
    And peace to men on earth.
    —Phillips Brooks (1835–1893)
