Hung

Famous quotes containing the word hung:

“And the chieftain’s head, with grinning sockets, and varnished—
Is it hung on the sky with a hideous epitaphy?
No, the woman keeps the trophy.”

I try
to kill myself in small amounts,
an innocuous occupation.
Actually I’m hung up on it.”

Of his friends’ hells into a pigeonhole—
He hung each disparate anguish on the spits
Parboiled and roasted in his own withering soul.”
