Witch Hazel Extract

Famous quotes containing the words witch, hazel and/or extract:

    The witch turned as red
    as the Jap flag.
    Her blood began to boil up
    like Coca-Cola.
    Her eyes began to melt.
    She was done for.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    For spring had entered the capital
    Walking on gigantic feet.
    The smell of witch hazel indoors
    Changed to narcissus in the street.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Evil passions and evil inclinations are much more dangerous than evil books. The sensualist will extract poison from the purest page, the modest can blush without being corrupted.
