Childhood Hunger

Famous quotes containing the words childhood and/or hunger:

    I long for scenes where man has never trod A place where woman never smiled or wept There to abide with my Creator God And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept, Untroubling and untroubled where I lie The grass below, above, the vaulted sky.
    John Clare (1793–1864)

    A hunger flashing in the eye
    Which jutting bellies would belie.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
