Drew

Famous quotes containing the word drew:

    “she drew back a while,
    Then, yielding to the irresistible joy,
    With frantic gesture and short breathless cry
    Folded his frame in her dissolving arms.
    Now blackness veiled his dizzy eyes, and night
    Involved and swallowed up the vision; sleep,
    Like a dark flood suspended in its course,
    Rolled back its impulse on his vacant brain.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “struggled scarce—
    Consented, and was dead—

    And We—We placed the Hair—
    And drew the Head erect—
    And then an awful leisure was
    Belief to regulate—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “I’m so sick of Nancy Drew I could vomit.”
    —Mildred Augustus Wirt Benson (b. c. 1906)
