Famous quotes containing the words left, hand and/or point:
“Was seizd by the spirit that trails in the lines underfoot,
The rim, the sediment that stands for all the water and all the land
of the globe.
Fascinated, my eyes reverting from the south, dropt, to follow those slender windrows,
Chaff, straw, splinters of wood, weeds, and the sea-gluten,
Scum, scales from shining rocks, leaves of salt-lettuce, left by the tide,”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“One hand stiffheaviness of forties & menopause reduced
by one heart stroke, lame nowwrinklesa scar on
her head, the lobotomyruin, the hand dipping downwards to
death”
—Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
“...there is a difference between being convinced and being stubborn. Im not certain what the difference is, but I do know that if you butt your head against a stone wall long enough, at some point you realize the wall is stone and that your head is flesh and blood.”
