Famous quotes containing the words dry and/or skin:
“We are things of dry hours and the involuntary plan,
Grayed in, and gray. “Dream” makes a giddy sound, not strong
Like “rent,” “feeding a wife,” “satisfying a man.””
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“Her skin was white as leprosy,
The nightmare Life-in-Death was she,
Who thicks man’s blood with cold.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
