Dumb

Famous quotes containing the word dumb:

“Blackberries
Big as the ball of my thumb, and dumb as eyes
Ebon in the hedges, fat
With blue-red juices. These they squander on my fingers.
I had not asked for such a blood sisterhood; they must love me.”
—Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

“And I am dumb to tell the lover’s tomb
How at my sheet goes the same crooked worm.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
