Ash Bed

Famous quotes containing the words ash and/or bed:

    Of the crow-blue mussel shells, one keeps
    adjusting the ash heaps;
    opening and shutting itself like

    an
    injured fan.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    A man was to live in that egg-shell day and night, a mile from the shore.... Think of making your bed thus in the crest of a breaker! To have the waves, like a pack of hungry wolves, eying you always, night and day, and from time to time making a spring at you, almost sure to have you at last.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
