Drew

Famous quotes containing the word drew:

“And in the next instant, immediately behind them, Victor saw his former wife.
At once he lowered his gaze, automatically tapping his cigarette to dislodge the ash that had not yet had time to form. From somewhere low down his heart rose like a fist to deliver an uppercut, drew back, struck again, then went into a fast disorderly throb, contradicting the music and drowning it.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

“She drew back; he was calm
‘It is this that had the power,’
And he lashed his open palm
With the tender-headed flower.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“The buzz saw snarled and rattled in the yard
And made dust and dropped stove-length sticks of wood,
Sweet-scented stuff when the breeze drew across it.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
