Famous quotes containing the words ear and/or drops:

“Darling Death
shouted in his ear,
his ear made to record

of worm-cries and
dragonfly-jubilations....”

“I stand on top
of our back steps and breathe the rich air—
a mother skunk with her column of kittens swills the garbage pail.
She jabs her wedge-head in a cup
of sour cream, drops her ostrich tail,
and will not scare.”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
