Famous quotes containing the word edge:

    A whisper ran along the edge of the dawn.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    A lonely man is a lonesome thing, a stone, a bone, a stick, a receptacle for Gilbey’s gin, a stooped figure sitting at the edge of a hotel bed, heaving copious sighs like the autumn wind.
