White Ticked

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or ticked:

    “It looks as if
    Some pallid thing had squashed its features flat
    And its eyes shut with overeagerness
    To see what people found so interesting
    In one another, and had gone to sleep
    Of its own stupid lack of understanding,
    Or broken its white neck of mushroom stuff
    Short off, and died against the windowpane.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The source of poetry that
    seeing the clock stopped, says,
    The clock has stopped

    that ticked yesterday so well?
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
