Famous quotes containing the words clean and/or sheets:

    He had come down, He said, to clean the earth
    Of the dirtiness of war.

    He found how much the people wanted war.

    I’m tired of rubber sheets and tubes.
    I’m tired of faces that I don’t know
    and now I think that death is starting.
