Falling

Famous quotes containing the word falling:

    Life stood on the top stair a moment
    Waved her last gray slander down the stair,
    I will not forget her absent eyes
    Her other smile like one rose
    Falling, falling everywhere....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    O falling fire and piercing cry
    and panic, and a weak mailed fist
    clenched ignorant against the sky!
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    Here falling houses thunder on your head,
    And here a female atheist talks you dead.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
