Famous quotes containing the word lay:
“Vigil strange I kept on the field one night;
When you my son and my comrade dropt at my side that day,
One look I but gave which your dear eyes returnd with a look I
shall never forget,
One touch of your hand to mine O boy, reachd up as you lay on the ground,”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“By what a delicate and far-stretched contribution every island is made! What an enterprise of nature thus to lay the foundations of and to build up the future continent, of golden and silver sands and the ruins of forests, with ant-like industry.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Its one for the money,
Two for the show,
Three to get ready,
Now go, cat, go!
But dont you step on my Blue Suede Shoes.
You can do anything but lay off my Blue Suede Shoes.”
—Carl Perkins (b. 1932)
