Choking Arm

Famous quotes containing the words choking and/or arm:

    “On like the wind they hurried, and Morgan rode in advance;
    Bright were his eyes like live coals, as he gave me a sideways
    glance;
    And I was just breathing freely, after my choking pain,
    When the last one of the troopers suddenly drew his rein.”
    —Constance Fenimore Woolson (1840–1894)

    “the uncomfortable angels that rot
    On the slabs, a wing chipped here, an arm there:
    The brute curiosity of an angel’s stare
    Turns you, like them, to stone....”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
