Downward Closed

Famous quotes containing the words downward and/or closed:

    “A woman drew her long black hair out tight
    And fiddled whisper music on those strings
    And bats with baby faces in the violet light
    Whistled, and beat their wings
    And crawled head downward down a blackened wall....”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “On a flat road runs the well-trained runner,
    He is lean and sinewy with muscular legs,
    He is thinly clothed, he leans forward as he runs,
    With lightly closed fists and arms partially raised.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
