Famous quotes containing the words left, breast and/or suspended:
“When was I ever anything but kind to him?
But Ill not have the fellow back, he said.
I told him so last haying, didnt I?
If he left then, I said, that ended it.
What good is he? Who else will harbor him
At his age for the little he can do?”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“On the grey rock of Cashel I suddenly saw
A Sphinx with woman breast and lion paw,
A Buddha, hand at rest,
Hand lifted up that blest;
And right between these two a girl at play
That, it may be, had danced her life away....”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“Faces, suddenly suspended above you;
faces that you think its your business to love
if only you could remember their names.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
