Drew

Famous quotes containing the word drew:

    The inspired scribbler always has the gift for gossip in our common usage ... he or she can always inspire the commonplace with an uncommon flavor, and transform trivialities by some original grace or sympathy or humor or affection.
    —Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)

    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)

    Desponding Phyllis was endu’d
    With ev’ry Talent of a Prude,
    She trembled when a Man drew near;
    Salute her, and she turn’d her Ear:
    If o’er against her you were plac’d
    She durst not look above your Waist;
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
