Flaming Lips

Famous quotes containing the words flaming and/or lips:

    Between extremities
    Man runs his course;
    A brand, or flaming breath,
    Comes to destroy
    All those antinomies
    Of day and night....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Then I discovered that my son had learned something new. For the first time, he was able to give a proper kiss, puckering up his lips and enfolding my face in his arms. “Kees Dada,” he said as he bussed me on the nose and cheeks. No amount of gratification at work could have compensated for that moment.
    —Donald H. Bell. “Conflicting Interests,” New York Times Magazine (July 31, 1983)
