Famous quotes containing the word kisses:
“Dear as remembered kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feigned
On lips that are for others; deep as love,
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret;
O Death in Life, the days that are no more.”
—Alfred Tennyson (18091892)
“Injurious Time now, with a robbers haste,
Crams his rich thievery up, he knows not how;
As many farewells as be stars in heaven,
With distinct breath and consigned kisses to them,
He fumbles up into a loose adieu,
And scants us with a single famished kiss,
Distasted with the salt of broken tears.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Augusta: You have an ant strolling up your cheek.
Tom: I wish it were your lips. [She kisses him] Such a little kiss.
Augusta: Such a little ant.
Tom: Wish it had been an elephant.”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
