Coiled Hair

Famous quotes containing the words coiled and/or hair:

“Now remember courage, go to the door,
Open it and see whether coiled on the bed
Or cringing by the wall, a savage beast
Maybe with golden hair, with deep eyes
Like a bearded spider on a sunlit floor
Will snarl—and man can never be alone.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

““You are old, father William,” the young man said,
“And your hair has become very white;
And yet you incessantly stand on your head
Do you think, at your age, it is right?””
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
