Long Tails

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or tails:

“Mark the babe
Not long accustomed to this breathing world;
One that hath barely learned to shape a smile,
Though yet irrational of soul, to grasp
With tiny finger—to let fall a tear;
And, as the heavy cloud of sleep dissolves,
To stretch his limbs, bemocking, as might seem,
The outward functions of intelligent man.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

“All along the backwater,
Through the rushes tall,
Ducks are a-dabbling,
Up tails all!”
—Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932)
