Bare Knuckle

Famous quotes containing the words bare and/or knuckle:

    Bare night is best. Bare earth is best. Bare, bare,
    Except for our own houses, huddled low
    Beneath the arches and their spangled air,
    Beneath the rhapsodies of fire and fire,
    Where the voice that is in us makes a true response....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    What’s in the cupboard?
    Says Mr. Hubbard.

    Says Mr. Beal.
