Clean Side

Famous quotes containing the words clean and/or side:

“Going down for the last time, the last breath lying,
I grapple with eels like ropes—it’s ether, it’s queer
and then, at last, it’s done. Now the scavengers arrive,
the hard crawlers who come to clean up the ocean floor.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“The simile sets two ideas side by side; in the metaphor they become superimposed.”
—F.L. Lucas (1894–1967)
