Famous quotes containing the words jumping and/or spiders:
“Everything seems beautiful because you don’t understand. Those flying fish, they’re not leaping for joy, they’re jumping in terror. Bigger fish want to eat them. That luminous water, it takes its gleam from millions of tiny dead bodies, the glitter of putrescence. There’s no beauty here, only death and decay.”
—Curtis Siodmak (1902–1988)
“Only the rich remember the past,
The strawberries once in the Apennines,
Philadelphia that the spiders ate.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
