Left Breast Suspended

Famous quotes containing the words left, breast and/or suspended:

    Eliot dead, you saying,
    “And who is left to understand my jokes?
    My old Brother in the arts . . . and besides, he was a smash of
    poet.”
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    Laughter and grief join hands. Always the heart
    Clumps in the breast with heavy stride;
    The face grows lined and wrinkled like a chart,
    The eyes bloodshot with tears and tide.
    Let the wind blow, for many a man shall die.
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    Faces, suddenly suspended above you;
    faces that you think it’s your business to love
    if only you could remember their names.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
