Dull

Famous quotes containing the word dull:

    For present joys are more to flesh and blood
    Than a dull prospect of a distant good.

    You preferred it to the usual thing:
    One dull man, dulling and uxorious,
    One average mind—with one thought less, each year.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    Droning a drowsy syncopated tune,
    Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
    I heard a Negro play.

    By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light
    Langston Hughes (1902–1967)
