Beaten Eggs

Famous quotes containing the words beaten and/or eggs:

“You ask what I have found and far and wide I go,
Nothing but Cromwell’s house and Cromwell’s murderous crew,
The lovers and the dancers are beaten into the clay,
And the tall men and the swordsmen and the horsemen where are they?”

Lays eggs inside a paper bag.”
