Beats

Famous quotes containing the word beats:

    That’s right, there is no reflection. The flesh is only an illusion, and the heart beats only when it is drunk with blood.
    —Pat Fielder. Paul Landres. Dracula (Francis Lederer)

    Mind in its purest play is like some bat
    That beats about in caverns all alone,
    Contriving by a kind of senseless wit
    Not to conclude against a wall of stone.
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    It beats sitting around with my butt in a sling.
    Antoinette Cancello, U.S. circus aerialist. As quoted in WomenSports magazine, p. 35 (January 1976)
