Hughes

Famous quotes containing the word hughes:

    What happens to a dream deferred?

    Does it dry up
    like a raisin in the sun?
    —Langston Hughes (1902–1967)

    A fox’s nose touches twig, leaf;
    Two eyes serve a movement, that now
    And again now, and now, and now

    Sets neat prints into the snow
    —Ted Hughes (b. 1930)

    Coming about its own business
    Till, with a sudden sharp hot stink of fox
    It enters the dark hole of the head.
    The window is starless still; the clock ticks,
    The page is printed.
    —Ted Hughes (b. 1930)
