Famous quotes containing the words green and/or skin:
“On the green they watched their sons
Playing till too dark to see,
As their fathers watched them once,
As my father once watched me;”

Touch him, and you’ll find he’s all gone inside
just like an old mushroom, all wormy inside, and hollow
under a smooth skin and an upright appearance.”
