Mckay

Famous quotes containing the word mckay:

    The wine-flushed, bold-eyed boys, and even the girls,
    Devoured her with their eager, passionate gaze;
    But looking at her falsely-smiling face,
    I knew her self was not in that strange place.
    —Claude McKay (1889–1948)

    The pavement slabs burn loose beneath my feet,
    A chafing savage, down the decent street;
    And passion rends my vitals as I pass,
    Where boldly shines your shuttered door of glass.
    —Claude McKay (1889–1948)

    And, hungry for the old, familiar ways,
    I turned aside and bowed my head and wept.
    —Claude McKay (1889–1948)
