Famous quotes containing the word wonderful:
“Wistfully watching, with wonderful liquid eyes.
And all her weight, all her blood, dripping sack-wise down towards
the earth’s center,
And the live little-one taking in its paw at the door of her belly.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“I’m going to give the people what they want. Sensation, horror, shock. Send them out in the streets to tell their friends how wonderful it is to be scared to death.”
—Crane Wilbur (1889–1973)
“What other words, we may almost ask, are memorable and worthy to be repeated than those which love has inspired? It is wonderful that they were ever uttered. They are few and rare indeed, but, like a strain of music, they are incessantly repeated and modulated by the memory. All other words crumble off with the stucco which overlies the heart. We should not dare to repeat these now aloud. We are not competent to hear them at all times.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
