Dull Knife

Famous quotes containing the words dull and/or knife:

    Among the Very Rich you will never find a really generous man, even by accident. They may give their money away, but they will never give themselves away; they are egoistic, secretive, dry as old bones. To be smart enough to get all that money you must be dull enough to want it.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    I loved. And a man will guard when he loves.
    Their white-gowned democracy was my fair lady.
    With her knife lying cold, straight, in the softness of her sweet-flowing sleeve.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
