Ash Fall

Famous quotes containing the words ash and/or fall:

    The last cobwebs
    of fog in the
    black firtrees are flakes
    of white ash in the world’s hearth.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Such a set of tittle tattle, prittle prattle visitants! Oh Dear! I am so sick of the ceremony and fuss of these fall lall people! So much dressing—chitchat—complimentary nonsense—In short, a country town is my detestation. All the conversation is scandal, all the attention, dress, and almost all the heart, folly, envy, and censoriousness.
    Frances Burney (1752–1840)
