Famous quotes containing the words eleventh and/or earl:
“I was thinking of a son.
The womb is not a clock
nor a bell tolling,
but in the eleventh month of its life
I feel the November
of the body as well as of the calendar.”

When absent from her eyes,
That feed my love, which is my soul:
It languishes and dies.”
