Fox Head Tavern

Famous quotes containing the words fox, head and/or tavern:

    Have you ever been in love? A doll in Washington Heights once got a fox fur out of me.
    Jay Dratler, U.S. screenwriter, Samuel Hoffenstein (1889–1947)

    I tied down time with a rope
    but it came back.
    Then
    I put my head in a death bowl
    and my eyes shut up like clams.
    They didn’t come back.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Rude poets of the tavern hearth,
    squandering your unquoted mirth,
    which keeps the ground, and never soars,
    while jake retorts, and reuben roars;
    tough and screaming, as birch-bark,
    goes like bullet to its mark;
    while the solid curse and jeer
    never balk the waiting ear.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
