Left Breast Suspended

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

    How have you left the ancient love
    That bards of old enjoyed in you!
    The languid strings do scarcely move!
    The sound is forced, the notes are few!
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    his head
    May not lie on the breast nor his lips on the hair
    Of the woman that he loves, until he dies.
    O beast of the wilderness, bird of the air,
    Must I endure your amorous cries?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    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)
