High Hand

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or hand:

    I’ll walk, but not in old heroic traces,
    And not in paths of high morality,
    And not among the half-distinguished faces,
    The clouded forms of long-past history.
    Emily Brontë (1818–1848)

    One hand stiff—heaviness of forties & menopause reduced
    by one heart stroke, lame now—wrinkles—a scar on
    her head, the lobotomy—ruin, the hand dipping downwards to
    death—
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
