Heads

Famous quotes containing the word heads:

    ““The city’s grotesque iron skeletons
    Would knock their drunken penthouse heads together
    And cake their concrete dirt off in the streets.””
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “My hounds are bred out of the Spartan kind,
    So flewed, so sanded; and their heads are hung
    With ears that sweep away the morning dew;
    Crook-kneed, and dewlapped like Thessalian bulls;
    Slow in pursuit, but matched in mouth like bells,
    Each under each.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Revolutionary politics, revolutionary art, and oh, the revolutionary mind, is the dullest thing on earth. When we open a “revolutionary” review, or read a “revolutionary” speech, we yawn our heads off. It is true, there is nothing else. Everything is correctly, monotonously, dishearteningly “revolutionary.” What a stupid word! What a stale fuss!”
    —Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)
